Lay Leaders in the CSSJ Mission and Tradition
“Our charism… sends us into the world as continuous acts of love, a love that is active and inclusive, patient and enduring, fearless and tender, forgiving and giving, steady and steadfast. It forms bridges, makes connections easier and facilitates life for others, enabling them also to stir up love in our world.” Sister Marcia Allen, CSJ Concordia, KS

In the CSSJ tradition, it is how we relate to the dear neighbor as we serve needs that stimulates the heart and fosters unity. The quality of our presence, our manner of relating, as we meet the needs of others is what distinguishes our ministries or works of service. We serve with ‘cordial’ charity!
