A bold and beautiful symbol of our unity, mission and shared future
The Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet are excited to introduce our new logo—a shared symbol rooted in the unifying love that calls us together as one congregation.
This bold and hope-filled design reflects who we are today and who we are becoming. It expresses our collective mission, our rich diversity and our commitment to the shared future we are building together.
A Meaningful Design
Every element of the logo was chosen with intention, with a nod to the design elements of our past.
- Its stained glass motif evokes the rich tapestry of stories that shape our collective memory, offering a sense of light, legacy, and renewal.
- At the center stands the cross, a timeless sign of faith and service that grounds our mission. The subtle flaring of the cross symbolizes the expansion of our continuing work.
- The absence of an external border reflects that our mission is not contained but global in nature.
Why a New Logo?
Our previous logos served us well in their time and context. But as we continue to deepen our life as one congregation, we recognized the need for a shared visual identity—one that unites us across provinces and expresses who we are together.
This new logo marks a new chapter, honoring our past, embracing the present, and stepping boldly into the future.
A Collaborative Process
This project began at the request of the leaders of our congregation and our four provinces and vice province. The communications staff carried the project forward in the spirit of collaboration.
We started by gathering input from leadership across all provinces, then invited the entire congregation to share their insights through a survey. We shared all of that wisdom with our design partners at Blustery Day Design, who brought it to life with creativity and care.
At every step, sisters, communicators and leaders helped shape a visual identity that reflects our spirit and our mission.
Variations
This new logo better reflects our unity as one congregation, with one common symbol and variations for our languages and provinces.
Let this logo remind us: we are many, yet we are one — boldly rooted in mission, united in love, and inspired by the colorful threads of our collective heritage.
