  • The Sisters of St. Joseph. Beginnings in London Diocese 1868-1878 by Sister Julia MOORE, Scj., M.A., PH.D
    CCHA, Study Sessions, 45(1978), 37-55 The Sisters of St. Joseph. Beginnings in London Diocese 1868-1878 by Sister Julia MOORE, scj., M.A., PH.D. The first ten years of the history of the Sisters of S t. Joseph of London, 1868-1878 is the subject of this paper. However, since the London Community traces its roots to the first foundation of the Sisters of St. Joseph made at Lepuy, France in 1650, I shall refer briefly to our origins. T he first Sisters were brought together by a French Jesuit, Jean-Pierre Médaille. This holy man, reflecting upon his country’s sufferings resulting from the aftermath of the W ars of Religion, longed to heal its wounded people. That is the reason why the Congregation he founded had as basic concept UNITY; this is also interpreted as Reconciliation or Healing. The first members visited and cared for the sick, ministered to the poor, the aged, the imprisoned and instructed young girls in spiritual matters. In the early years, the Congregation grew steadily in numbers of Sisters and established Convents keeping pace with the growth. The French Revolution brought its sufferings, and the persecution of the Terrorists caused the dispersement of the members of the Community. Before the Reign of Terror was over, five Sisters of St. Joseph had been guillotined and another five were awaiting the same fate in the prison of St. Didier-Haute Loire. With the fall of Robespierre, the imprisoned Sisters were freed and one of them, Mother S t. John Fontbonne, reorganized the Community members, assembling them at Lyons in 1807.

  • This 2008 Letter
    The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury & The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of York July, 2008 Most Reverend Fathers in God, We write as bishops, priests and deacons of the Provinces of Canterbury and York, who have sought, by God’s grace, in our various ministries, to celebrate the Sacraments and preach the Word faithfully; to form, nurture and catechise new Christians; to pastor the people of God entrusted to our care; and, through the work of our dioceses, parishes and institutions, to build up the Kingdom and to further God’s mission to the world in this land. Our theological convictions, grounded in obedience to Scripture and Tradition, and attentive to the need to discern the mind of the whole Church Catholic in matters touching on Faith and Order, lead us to doubt the sacramental ministry of those women ordained to the priesthood by the Church of England since 1994. Having said that, we have engaged with the life of the Church of England in a myriad of ways, nationally and locally, and have made sincere efforts to work courteously and carefully with those with whom we disagree. In the midst of this disagreement over Holy Order, we have, we believe, borne particular witness to the cause of Christian unity, and to the imperative of Our Lord’s command that ‘all may be one.’ We include those who have given many years service to the Church in the ordained ministry, and others who are very newly ordained. We believe that we demonstrate the vitality of the tradition which we represent and which has formed us in our discipleship and ministry – a tradition which, we believe, constitutes an essential and invaluable part of the life and character of the Church of England, without which it would be deeply impoverished.
