Each spring, we celebrate Saint Joseph and the work of St. Catherine University’s founders, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, fostering the love of the dear neighbor through service, social justice, and reflection. In addition to service projects and the prayer service, the gathering will include heavy appetizers and a visit from therapy animals.

2026 service projects and activities will include:

• Making "plarn" sleeping mats out of recycled plastic bags with Agate Housing Services
• Creating fleece-tie blankets with Interfaith Action’s Project Home
• "Hola Amigo" note-writing for students with Common Hope
• Constructing "Welcome Home Bags" for people leaving incarceration with Amicus Reconnect Services
• Legislative advocacy letter-writing with the Justice Office for the Sisters of St Joseph
• Making cat toys for shelter animals
• An opportunity to learn more and sign up for service with Today’s Harvest free market

ASL interpretation will be provided during the prayer service.
