Sisters of St. Joseph

of Northwestern Pennsylvania

We are now accepting nominations for the 16^th annual SSJ Spirit of Courage Awards which will be held on Tuesday, October 1, 2013. 

We are seeking nominees who exemplify extraordinary courage while dealing with personal struggles or in helping others cope with illness, injury, chemical dependency and/or economic adversity.  Nominees must reside within the boundaries of the thirteen counties of Northwestern Pennsylvania. 

The Sisters of St. Joseph recognize individuals who portray the Spirit of Courage because it is a natural fit with their many ministries:  education, health care, care for the elderly, social outreach, shelter for the homeless and affordable housing for mothers and children.
