Congratulations to our newest associates, Roberta Gumbel CSJA and Rosalind O’Hora CSJA.

Roberta and Rosalind made their initial commitments on June 23 at St. Therese Little Flower Catholic Church in Kansas City. They now are part of the Holy Family Associate Community.

In her commitment statement Rosalind says, "Praising God in my search of moments of peace in the presence of God, I strive to embrace the call to love and serve ‘the dear neighbor’…. I pray for the grace to move forward loving and serving my brothers and sisters in Christ.”

Roberta says, "Whether working with the poor, sick, elderly or disadvantaged, [the Sisters of St. Joseph] are constant reminders to me of how much is needed in this world we live in… I feel called…to walk with them… making a small difference to the ‘dear neighbor’.”

Congratulations also to the formation team leaders, Sister Ann and Josie, plus the formation facilitators, Sisters Gabrielle Smits and Martha Niemann and Associates Julie Broyle, Carol Johnson, Maggie Lambi, Carole and Lee Hillestad.
