Nourishing the Spirit
For those who are aware of the life and work of Rose Philippine Duchesne, the two passions of her life are evident: her meeting in 1804 and lifelong friendship with Madeleine Sophie Barat, Foundress of the Society of the Sacred Heart; and her early calling to serve the Native Americans in the fledgling country across the Atlantic from her native France.

The
Center for Educational Design and Communication (CEDC) serves the
Society of the Sacred Heart and other faith-based groups committed to
social justice. The Center joins its project partnerships bringing a
wide range of affordable educational and communication services to bear
on important social change efforts.
The
Sisters of Christian Charity contribute both their living tradition of
over 100 years at Josephinum and the use of the school buildings and
grounds under a recently completed lease. The Religious of the Sacred
Heart provide educational direction for the Josephinum which includes
among its board members representatives of both the Sisters of
Christian Charity and the Religious of the Sacred Heart as well as
other religious and lay members.
Membership
in the Network provides each school with opportunities for
collaboration. The Network and its members seek to share their work and
to collaborate whenever possible with other educational organizations
as well as with other works within the Society of the Sacred Heart.
The
Spiritual Ministry Center was founded by the Religious of the Sacred
Heart in 1987. Our charism is to discover and make known the love of
the Heart of Jesus today and to participate in the rebuilding of a more
just and peaceful world. We welcome people of diverse faiths and
cultures who seek to deepen their relationship with God and others. Our
programs facilitate personal integration in the light of Gospel values
and the insights of contemporary psychology and theology.
