JSM Mission-Faith Statement

Help create a Catholic Community that welcomes all God’s People, provides for and challenges spiritual and total growth.

Reaches out to help people who are disadvantaged and make the world we live in a better place to live.

Jeremiah 20:  I say to myself, I will not mention him, I will speak in his name no more.  But then it becomes like fire burning in my heart, imprisoned in my bones; I grow weary holding it in, I cannot endure it.
Romans 12:  Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.
Matthew 16:  Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.  For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

Nothing we attempt to do well is lost. It is always a sign of either the possible or the desirable to someone else. “Although only a small fraction of those who try to scale the heights of human achievement arrive anywhere close to the summit,” Chardin wrote, “it is imperative that there be a multitude of climbers. Otherwise the summit may not be reached by anybody.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
