St. Joseph's Corner: Spiritual Direction from the Saints



“During painful times, when you feel a terrible void, 
think how God is enlarging the capacity of your soul so that it can receive Him – 
making it, as it were, infinite as He is infinite. 
 Look upon each pain as a love token coming to you 
directly from God in order to unite you to Him.”  
St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, religious Carmelite (+1906)

Sponsored by the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker, Walton, Kentucky (1974) 


If you feel you are being called to a religious vocation but don't know how to go about finding out which community you may be called to, it means that your soul is seeking a vocation retreat.

The Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker in Walton, Kentucky are hosting two "Called to Love" Vocation Retreats in February.  One is being held on Saturday, February 17, 2018 for young ladies in grades 6th-12th and the other is being held on Friday-Sunday, February 23rd-25th for young women 18-30. Each retreat is a welcome withdrawal from the world into periods of silence, prayer, community, and recreation much needed for the spiritual growth of the soul.

To learn more about our retreats or to register for one of the events email your confirmation to Sister Patricia Jean, Vocation Director at: sjwvocations@gmail.com.
