Sisters of St. Joseph

[Cloisters]

March is the month of St. Joseph. I realize Wiki is not the most favored source, but this page gives what I consider to be a comprehensive overview of this order founded in France, then restored after the French Revolution. The “dear neighbor” is Salesian, and the congregation follows the Rule of St. Augustine.
