Synopsis "Evolution of a Movement: Josephite Associates to Josephite Companions 1979-2019"

This is of course a story of how a religious order gave new expression to its distinctive values and tradition in establishing a wider community of lay associates. The Sisters of St Joseph from the outset were practical, adaptable and relatively informal - focused on meeting needs where they saw them and stretching themselves thin to do so. Mary Cresp captures these Josephite values beautifully as she unfolds the development of the order's Associates/Companions. But it's not a book just about the Josephites. It's much more - a case study in how Catholic communities in several countries have responded to the challenges of the Second Vatican Council and to changing times. For that it's well worth a read. Peter Cahalan PhD - formerly CEO of the History Trust of South Australia. In her history of Josephite Associates over 40 years, Mary Cresp rsj informs her scholarly experience and thoroughness with documentation and contributions from more than 200 people who were themselves involved in creating that story. She describes the evolution of Josephite Associates to Josephite Companions as a "story of relationships". It is a story with lessons about relationships and formation, but also about persistence of vision, about living with unresolved questions, about fostering the emergence of new leadership and above all about walking together with joy in a shared baptismal mission. Anne Benjamin, Honorary Professor, Australian Catholic University. Consultant to Biographical Dictionary of Australian Catholic Educators.
