| The
Little Sisters of Jesus and Mary were founded in Baltimore in
1974 by Sister Mary Elizabeth Gintling. Inspired by Charles de
Foucauld and the writings of Rene Voillaume, Sister Mary
Elizabeth wanted to follow Jesus in as simple and contemplative
a lifestyle as possible, serving the poor and striving for peace
and justice.
The apostolates include emergency social service centers in Baltimore and Salisbury; a hospitality center for the homeless in Salisbury; a transitional living facility in Salisbury that includes a medical clinic and day care center. Joseph House By The Sea, a religious art, book, and gift store, is located in Ocean City, Maryland. There is a novitiate for the community (St. Joseph Cloister) in Princess Anne, Maryland. Women aged 18 or over, with a high school education, may apply. We pray that Jesus will speak to those He desires for this beautiful life of service and prayer. |
