Fiscal Year 2012 Advancement Giving Report
Our donors and other giving resources have supported
our semiannual appeals and have given enthusiastically from
July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013. The Congregation of the
Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston received $1 million in gifts
and 9,533 donations from donors, grants, foundations and
Wills & Estates as Partners in Ministry. These generous gifts
enable us to support the work we do daily to meet the needs of
our neighbors and provide for our elderly and infirm sisters.
Ministry is at the core of our mission, and your ongoing
financial support complements our efforts daily.
Appeals, Collections for Retired Religious
and Other Donations
We received 2,503 donations to the General Fund through our
appeals totaling $339,892. During the Fall 2012 and Spring
2013 Appeal, 321 donations were made to Elderly & Infirm,
totaling $18,917. The collections for Retired Religious totaled
$348,884. These two collections are from parishioners, locally
through the Church, and nationally, and are vital to all Sisters
of St. Joseph of Boston. Other donations totaling $10,850 were
applied to Retreats & Spiritual Programs, Human Trafficking,
the Holy Spirit Garden and the Motherhouse chapel in
Brighton, MA. In kind donations totaled $5,402.
Card Programs
Donor contributions and support through our card programs
continued to grow again this fiscal year as our Pass Us Along
promotion has caught on and new donors are taking advantage
of these programs. 6,255 donations were made through the card
programs totaling $92,971. These important donations honor the
living and pay tribute to those who have passed away. Donor
generosity is a vital part of how we provide for our retired and
elderly & infirm sisters. Family and friends thoughtfully request
that when a family member or friend of Sister of St. Joseph has
died donations be sent to the Congregation in their memory. Just
over 900 donations were received totaling $37,333 through the
In Lieu of Flowers option.

Wills & Estates
Donors remembered the Congregation through their
Wills & Estates during Fiscal Year 2012. We received
$33,840 designated for our Elderly & Infirm sisters.
We also received a non-restricted donation of $11,000.
Bequests strengthen our ability to respond to the
needs of others, and are another vital, oftentimes,
future source of revenue for the sisters. We thank the
families and friends of those who remembered us and
became Partners in Ministry because they honored
the planned giving wishes of their loved ones. We
will be encouraging our donors to consider this future
giving opportunity by becoming one of our Partners in
Ministry in the months ahead through planned giving.
Ministry Donations
Donations to the following ministries are received
by the Office of Mission Advancement: Casserly
House, The Literacy Connection, St. Joseph Retreat
Center and The Women’s Table. These ministries
received donations and grants for daily operations that
support programs and events. Each of these ministries
fulfills its daily mission and fundraises whenever and
wherever there is an opportunity.
Casserly House raised $60,737 through small events,
grants, a newsletter, and donations. These gifts fund
the newsletter, its adult literacy and summer camp
programs. These funds also provide for various
expenses throughout the year.
The Literacy Connection received $36,500 in grants
and $25,034 through the generosity of donors, some of
which were given because of Connecting. St. Joseph
Retreat Center received $15,111 in donations, some of
which were restricted to various areas of the facility for
improvements. The Women’s Table received $10,905 in
grants and donations.
These ministries provide direct services to the “dear
neighbor” through the Congregation and the financial
support of donors.
We are always mindful that your donations can
change lives. We, therefore, extend our heartfelt thanks
to all of our donors, as we are truly blessed by your
generosity. †
From the President
A
s I write this article, we are still in a World Series moment
here in Boston. Though the rolling parade is over, the magic
of the season remains. As Sisters of St. Joseph, we also feel
like we are in our own special moment as we begin a year
of celebrating 140 years of presence and dedicated service to the Church
and people of Boston.
There are numerous reasons to mark an anniversary such as this,
and perhaps the most significant reason is the thousands of students,
families, parishioners, co-workers, clergy, and donors, like yourself,
to whom we are deeply grateful. In our Constitution we state, “We
acknowledge humbly and gratefully that from those to whom we
minister we receive more than we give, indeed, in full measure and
flowing over.” It is this relationship we celebrate during this 140th year –
a relationship that is at the heart of all we are and do.
It is our hope that this year will be one of contemplative listening as
to how God is inviting us into the future, along with some celebrating.
So many of you have written to us of your memories of our presence
throughout the Greater Boston area and beyond as educators, nurses,
pastoral associates, spiritual directors, hospital chaplains, and social
workers. Thank you, also, for the special donations celebrating our 140
years. Your gifts continue to be used to provide for medical care for our
infirm sisters and assist in supporting those sisters who are actively
engaged in the mission of the Congregation through their volunteer
work and ministries.
We are exceedingly grateful to you, our donors, whose generosity
allows us to continue to seek new ways to be about serving and
forwarding the mission of Jesus.

From the Office of Mission Advancement
I
would like to introduce myself to you. I am
Carol Mack, the new Director of Mission
Advancement for the Sisters of St. Joseph of
Boston. I look forward to corresponding with
and meeting many of you. I come with many years
of experience in the field of advancement and a
passion to help the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston
fulfill their mission.
I am especially pleased to be joining the sisters
and associates during this, the 140th anniversary
celebration year. As I learn about the work of
the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston, I continue to
be amazed. There seems to be no corner of the
greater Boston area that has not been touched by
the sisters’ love and service to the “dear neighbor”
during the last 140 years. As individual sisters
and as a community, there is a firm, generous, and
ongoing commitment to connecting “neighbor
with neighbor and neighbor with God” – a vibrant
contemporary and inspiring example of living true
Gospel values.
I am so gratified to see the out-pouring of
support that you, our loyal donors, have shown.
THANK YOU! Your response to appeals, your
support of the ministries and your affirmation of
the sisters is a tribute to the spirit of the Gospel
that lives in your own hearts.
I have always loved autumn in New England.
It is such a beautiful time as the most brilliant
colors of the year paint the landscape. Trees have
been growing stronger all summer, and now they
burst into radiant color. It strikes me that this is
a metaphor for the sisters’ lives. So many of the
sisters that I have been privileged to meet are
in their autumn years; a lifetime of growth has
left them “painted” with the vibrant colors of
mature spirituality, abundant knowledge, broad
experience, and deep compassion. Instead of
retiring to a life of leisure, they choose to continue
on with zeal into second and third “careers” as
volunteers, still serving the “dear neighbor” so
close to their hearts.

In this issue, you will read the profiles of some
of these “vibrant” sisters along with dedicated
similarly vibrant lay people. Please know that
your generosity is vital and appreciated. Your
contribution supports our sisters and their
ongoing ministry. It also provides for the dignified
professional care of our aging and infirm sisters
whose lives have been selflessly dedicated to
God’s work on earth.
I want you to know that I am totally committed
to advancing the mission of the Sisters of St.
Joseph of Boston. I hope that I can count on
you for your continued support. Together, we do
make a difference by partnering with the sisters
to connect “neighbor with neighbor and neighbor
with God.”
May you enjoy the beauty of autumn and peace
in your heart.
Thank you!

If It Doesn’t Say
Boston,
It’s Not Ours
We have, once again, received phone calls
and notes from our friends, relatives, and
donors saying that they have received
solicitations from the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Springfield.
We share many things with our Springfield
sisters: history, tradition, friendship and
a passion for mission. We do not share
finances. We do not share our mailing
list with any other group. Nonprofits can
purchase mailing lists from magazines and
companies. The Springfield sisters do, and
that is why you receive their mailings.
Our mailings always have our logo:
Always our mailing address is:
Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston
637 Cambridge St.
Brighton, MA 02135.
Please be sure your gift
reaches its intended destination.

Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston 7
Sister Helene Higgins
F
or the past seven years, Sister Helene
Higgins’ ministry has been providing
parish and community outreach services
for New Hampshire Catholic Charities.
She sees it as a way “to help people (get) around
the corner.” “Hopefully,” she said during a recent
interview, “we are helping them move their lives
forward.” Sister does that by being the ‘connector.’
For example, she was recently helping a family
resolve an electric bill issue, and learned their
nine-year-old child was sleeping on a broken
futon. At the same time, a family called to donate
two day beds. Needless to say, Sister Helene
connected the two, and now, the child is sleeping
much more comfortably. Sister Helene said, “I am
grateful when I am able to help, and to connect
people with services.” With a chuckle, she told
an anecdote about herself. Another agency had
run out of ideas to help someone, and told that
person, “When you don’t know what to do, call
Sister Helene.” “When you call,” they said, “she
will listen, and if she doesn’t have an immediate
answer, she will call back in 24 to 48 hours with a
solution.” And, sure enough, in this particular case,
Sister Helene called back a day later with an idea.
She believes, “You just have to take the time to
think it through.”
Unfortunately though, there are also frustrations
with the ministry. For example, there are those
who keep seeking help over a period of years from
Catholic Charities. Sister Helene finds herself
telling them, “We know your need, but we can’t
respond right now.” Besides the frustrations, Sister
Helene said, she sees a lot of sadness in her work.
“We pour out our lives for others, and so we need
to replenish ourselves,” she said.
Sister Helene, who entered the Sisters of St.
Joseph of Boston in 1965, “feeds her soul” by
walking two to four miles every day. She also has
treated herself to tickets to the Boston Symphony
Orchestra. Doing things like this “make you see
there’s another world out there.” In fact, her world
has not been just Catholic Charities.
8 CONNECTING
By Judy Wasserman
“Our greatest
gift is
connecting.”
Pictured R:Sister Helene during a recent board meeting.
Over the years, her ministries have included being a
high school teacher, college professor, and campus
minister. Sister, who is not ready to retire, also said
there are many touching moments in her work. “God
watches over us and helps us connect.”
Looking to the future, Sister Helene said she knows
she must feed her soul “to continue what I am doing.”
She also hopes to start more projects and get more
people involved in them, so she can start to step away.
It’s pretty certain one of the lessons she will teach
others is that “our greatest gift is connecting.” †
Sister Mary Black
By Judy Wasserman
“Talking to people,” said
Sister Mary, helps her to
connect to them.
“I appreciate the time I have
to relate to people more.”
Pictured: Mark Ciommo, City Councilor, speaks with
Sister Mary Black.
S
ister Mary Black readily admits she “misses
teaching a lot.” But, that hasn’t stopped her
from enjoying her retirement, and “dabbling”
in many different interests. Sister Mary
finds that now, she can be more prayerful, and has time
to read and learn more. Her days are filled with a variety
of activities, as well. She is a consultant to the Office
of Mission Advancement for the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston, a volunteer for a safe house for women who
have been victims of human trafficking, a visitor to
Sisters residing at Bethany Healthcare Center on a regular
schedule, takes a water aerobics class, and visits with a
former aerobics participant who is now in an assisted living
facility. Sister Mary also volunteers at Cathedral High
School and visits a friend who is in prison. She believes
her visits to the prison are more meaningful now because
she has more time to spend there. She can “really listen
now.” Talking to people, helps her to connect to them. “I
appreciate the time I have to relate to people more.”
Sister Mary “retired” in 2012 after spending 33
years at Cathedral High School in the South End,
as a teacher and as the director of development.
Enthusiastic in the classroom and as an
administrator, or raising funds for the school,
Sister Mary looks at Cathedral High School as
“a very special, wonderful place.” Nowadays,
she volunteers there by helping with specific
fundraising events such as the annual golf
tournament. Before she arrived at Cathedral High
School, sister taught at: Walnut Park School,
Newton, St. Theresa School, West Roxbury,
St. Thomas School, Jamaica Plain, and at St.
Columbkille High School, Brighton, where she
had been principal for three years.
Sister was also novice director for the
Congregation for eight years and worked with
a Latino social service agency for two years.
Politics has been and still is an interest of hers.
Sister Mary has served with a Catholic Social
Justice lobbying group and is now a board
member of the Brighton Board of Trade and the
St. Helena House in the South End.
If that is not enough, she is on the CSJ
committee creating the Dare to Dream Dinner to
celebrate the 140th year of the Congregation of
the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston.
Having entered in 1949, Sister Mary said
this first year of retirement has been a time for
“exploring and trying new things.” Stay tuned for
what’s next! †

Enclosed please find a check
I wish to donate in gratitude and
thanks for the many gifts I’ve received
from the Sisters of St. Joseph. I and
my entire family have been enriched
beyond measure, and each of us hold
many treasured memories deep within.
I only wish it could be more.
Patricia Damian Medford, MA
Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston 13
Joanne Mauldin, CSJA
O
n May 1, 2013, Joanne Mauldin became
an Associate of the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston. Since then, she has attended
monthly congregation, associate, and
trinity meetings.
Her connection to the Congregation began during her
junior high school years while attending St. Francis de
Sales School in Roxbury. Next, she was taught by the
Sisters of Charity of Halifax at St. Patrick High School,
where she participated in chorus, glee club, sodality,
cheerleading, and volunteered with the Dominican
Sisters of the Sick and Poor.
It was at this time that Joanne felt her first calling to
enter religious life. Because of the changes after Vatican
II, the Dominicans were not accepting candidates, so
she decided to pursue her LPN license, hoping she
would eventually be accepted as a Dominican Sister.
“But, this was not in the plans God had in mind for
me,” Joanne explained. At the age of twenty-one, she
entered the Sisters of Charity of Halifax in Wellesley,
and remained a sister for eight years.
Again, God had other plans for her. “I attended
New England Baptist School of Nursing and Pine
Manor College and became an RN.” Joanne continued
her education at Boston University and received a
certificate in geriatric nursing. She worked as a staff
nurse at New England Baptist Hospital for eight years.
She met her husband Richard and became the mother
of Janine and Greg. At this time, she reestablished her
relationship with the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston and
became the Director of Nurses at Bethany Healthcare
Center in 1993.
She was working at the Department of Corrections
in Framingham, in 2000 when her husband died
after twenty-two years of marriage. “I would go to
14 CONNECTING
Fontbonne Hall for morning Mass and often stay for
breakfast with the sisters. I felt the Lord was calling
me back to religious life, having been single, religious,
married with two children, widowed, and single again,”
Joanne said. “In prayer, I began asking the Lord, ‘What
do You want of me now?’ It was at that time I became
the Healthcare Coordinator for the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston,” she explained.
Working for the sisters has become more than a job.
It is her ministry to respond to the medical and spiritual
needs of the sisters. “I always feel welcome and share
prayer about how God is working in my life. There is
a great sense of belonging,” Joanne said. She became
aware of the CSJ Associates and had been invited by
many sisters to join.
“I continued to discern about being called to a
religious community. One evening I was sitting quietly
in a chapel, when I heard the Lord say, ‘You have your
community,’” Joanne said. Then, she had a dream
in which she asked Sister Joan Duffy to sponsor her
to become a CSJ associate and become her spiritual
director. Shortly after that, she met with Sister Joan and
shared her dream. “Sister Joan’s immediate response
was ‘Yes,’ which confirmed my conviction that I had
found my community,” she said.
“I am grateful to both God and the community for
the enrichment this process of becoming an associate
brings to my life. I now understand the message in the
words of Jeremiah, ‘I know well the plans I have in
mind for you,’ and I am grateful for all that has been,
and trust in what will be.” †

Sister Mary Mills
By Judy Wasserman
“. . . whenever
Sister Mary arrives
at Bethany she
feels energized. . .”
W
hen Sister Mary Mills was growing
up, nursing was “the last thing”
on her mind as a career. After she
entered the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston in 1945, she taught fourth through
eighth grades for 35 years and loved it. But things
change, and today, she looks back on an additional
30 years providing nursing care to the residents of
Bethany Healthcare Center.
In a recent interview, sister explained that during
her teaching ministry she spent her summers
volunteering at Bethany, and ultimately, her
experiences “turned into another vocation.” She
even became a Certified Nursing Assistant. She
works on the 32-bed fourth floor and is responsible
for caring for the patients, which includes: making
as many beds as possible so that the nurses
can attend to other duties; helping with meal
distribution; putting up seasonal decorations; and
spending time with the residents. Sister Mary
enjoys talking with and listening to the residents,
and keeping them up to date on CSJ news.
Although it is difficult to see friends and sisters
she entered with gravely ill and dying, she
appreciates her work at Bethany. “It’s God’s work
for me right now.” In fact, whenever Sister Mary
arrives at Bethany she “feels energized,” and
is often called the energizer bunny by staff and
residents. Sister said there is good rapport with
both the staff and the residents, and they are “one
big family.”
On her days off, she makes her own bed and
cleans her room. She also enjoys walking and
reading, especially mysteries. Before she began
her Bethany Healthcare Center ministry, Sister
Mary had several teaching assignments, including
St. Agatha, Milton, St. Benedict, Somerville, St.
Charles, Waltham, St. Joseph, Medford, St. Joseph,
Lynn, St. John, Winthrop, and St. Catherine,
Norwood. After 35 years in teaching, she knew it
was time for a change.
Being at Bethany, Sister Mary said, “got in
my blood. Kindness, respect, and friendliness
are hallmarks of Bethany.” It’s something she
appreciates every day. †

Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston 15
Sister Diane Neumeyer
S
By Judy Wasserman
ister Diane Neumeyer’s 57 years as an
educator culminated last spring with
a very special surprise. The Jackson
School, where she taught for 20 years,
12 of these as the librarian, honored her by naming
the school library after her. “It was a surprise. I almost
collapsed! I felt so humbled and proud all at the same
time,” said Sister Diane during a recent interview.
Her connection to education and to Jackson School
continues, in this, her first year of retirement.
Sister Diane loved being the librarian at Jackson
School because she worked with all grade levels (K-6)
and watched the students grow. “My favorite part was
seeing the kids become readers.” Sister still volunteers
one day a week at the school, helping out wherever
she is needed.
Sister Diane is expanding her horizons a bit,
too. She has trained to be a tutor for The Literacy
Connection and is waiting to be matched with her
first student. Sister said she looks forward to working
with The Literacy Connection, where she will meet
people from different cultures and help them learn
English and practical life skills in America. “It will be
a challenge to do something different,” she said.
Retirement has given her time to do other things,
too. Sister Diane works out at a gym twice a week,
which, she said, helps her balance her daily life
and health. And, now that she has more time, she
is reading novels and listening to music. In fact,
the Jackson School staff gave her an iPad upon her
retirement; she especially likes to listen to music from
years ago.
Looking back, Sister Diane, who entered the Sisters
of St. Joseph of Boston in 1953, said she loved being
in a school. “The kids are special. They are the future.
I hope it’s a better world for them.” Her career in
education included assignments at St. Agatha School,
Milton, and at Montessori programs at Walnut Park
in Newton, Merrimack Montessori School, Haverhill,
and another in Framingham, where she served as
principal for nine years.
Reflecting on her retirement so far, Sister said, “I’m
starting with these activities, and will see where it
leads. I enjoy what I’m doing and I’ve made good
decisions.” †

Donor Day 2013
20 CONNECTING
Representative Kevin Honan
M
“
y connection with the Sisters of St. Joseph
of Boston influenced my career in public
service,” State Representative Kevin
Honan said during a recent interview.
He is a Massachusetts legislator for the 17th Suffolk
County District serving the Allston/Brighton area of
Boston, and Chair of the Joint Committee on Housing.
“Access to safe, affordable permanent housing for
every family in the Commonwealth is what we are
always working towards. Community partners, like the
Sisters of St. Joseph, help ready families to thrive in
this difficult economy.” Rep. Honan is also a devoted
donor, supporter, and committee member for the CSJ
Fall Luncheon.
“helping people in need
is contagious, and that
inspires others to get
involved. . .”
A second generation donor, Rep. Honan has been
influential in establishing the CSJ Fall Luncheon,
which raises funds for Allston/Brighton-based
ministries, The Literacy Connection and The Women’s
Table. This event was established six years ago to
invite residents, businesses and community leaders
to hear what is going on in the Greater Boston area,
particularly in Allston/ Brighton. The Allston Board of
Trade, Brighton Board of Trade, Allston Village Main
Streets, and Brighton Main Streets are also supporters
of the event.
Pictured: Rep. Kevin Honan and Mrs. Mary Honan.
“It is wonderful that the sisters have continued
this work. Providing strong educational goals and
the necessary support to achieve them through
The Literacy Connection and The Women’s Table
provides a wide range of social support for mothers
and children. He also believes, “one of AllstonBrighton’s greatest assets is our diversity,” and
“access to education, job training, and social support
for Allston/Brighton residents – recent immigrants
and life-long community members – only make our
community stronger.”
As a student at St. Columbkille High School,
Rep. Honan recalls the sisters were supportive
of him not only in the classroom, but also on the
basketball court. “They would even cheer us on
during games,” Rep. Honan said with a smile. He
fondly remembers many sisters who influenced his
community-focused career. He believes, “helping
people in need is contagious, and that inspires others
to get involved. The Sisters of St. Joseph have been
pillars of the Allston/Brighton community for 140
years,” said Rep. Honan. The sisters teach pathways
to employment and self-sufficiency, and I am proud
to support their incredible efforts.” †

I was a student at St. Joseph School
Amesbury, MA. I did not realize how much
of an impact the education I got there would
effect my life. I was not able to attend a
Catholic high school because of finances.
As a result of all your good efforts, I have
had a successful life and want to thank you
(belatedly) for giving me a good foundation
at an early age. God bless you all and
please keep me in your prayers.

Please accept this as a memorial gift in
honor of Sister Margaret McGarry.
I knew Sister Margaret for many years
as a teacher and then a colleague.
She was an excellent teacher and a
warm, generous woman who touched
many lives.
She is sadly missed.

Join us as a “Partner In Ministry”
Enrollment in “Partners in Ministry” is the way we recognize those generous people who have chosen to leave a legacy gift to
the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston with a planned gift in their estates. A planned gift is an excellent way to
say thank you to the sisters who have touched your life and to ensure that the vital ministries of the congregation are able to
continue serving the next generation.
Your gift, through a bequest in your will (or other planned gift vehicle such as a trust, an annuity, property, an IRA, stocks
or life insurance) will be used to provide care for our elderly and infirm sisters and will provide for the continuation of our
ministries. Truly you become our “Partner in Ministry”.
We would like to recognize your thoughtful gift during your lifetime. If you are planning to leave a legacy gift to the
Congregation of the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Boston, please complete the simple form below, and we will enroll you as a
Partner in Ministry and send you an enrollment certificate. Thank you!

Card Program
Choosing our cards is a generous way of celebrating the lives of relatives and friends.
Throughout the year, those you honor with a card are remembered in prayer by the
Sisters of St. Joseph and CSJ Associates.
We encourage our donors to request that their family and friends remember
the Congregation by sending donations “in lieu of flowers.” All donations are
acknowledged by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston Office of Mission Advancement.
If you wish to make a donation, know someone who would like to, or are in need of
cards for a relative or friend, please contact Cheryl Duggan,
Mission Advancement Coordinator, at 617-746-2114
or email [email protected].
To make a donation online,
visit www.csjboston.org and find the donate now button.

US ALONG
When you finish with this issue of Connecting please PASS US ALONG. So many good people do not
receive our mailings, but are connected in some way to the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston. It is our hope that
you will encourage others to read about the sisters and their ministries. When you PASS US ALONG, you will
be passing along good news.
