(JMJ)

Welcome To Congregation of Jesus Mary Joseph

The Congregation of Jesus Mary Joseph is a Catholic Religious Women’s Congregation.

Fr. Mathias Wolff SJ the Founder enkindled the flame of liberation in 1822 when he founded the Society of Jesus, Mary Joseph at Amersfoort, in the Netherlands to educate the poor and the marginalized girls and to revive the faith of the clandestine Catholic families.

Today, 837 members of JMJ follow in the footsteps of Fr. Mathias Wolff in various parts of the world, carrying out the same mission of liberation and the salvation of the soul with a Charism of ‘An ever Adaptable Apostolic Availability’.

Mathias was born to Mathias Wolff and Anna Maria Zenner on 6th March 1779 in Diekirk, a village in a very small country…

Reflections of Our Founder

Rev. Fr. Mathias Wolff Speaks about the Integrity of Words and Deeds…

“Laat ons wel op onze hoede zijn. Velen, die door hunne predikatiën en onderwijzingen den hemel aan een aantal anderen geopend hebben, worden nu in de hel gekweld, doordien zij de ware ootmoedigheid niet bezaten, en zich door een ijdel zelfbehagen hebben laten vervoeren; maar ootmoedigen worden in deze strafplaats niet gevonden.”

Our Vision

Every Sister of JMJ seeks to live a Eucharistic centred life in total openness to the will of God. Thereby, she is constantly urged to liberate herself in the spirit of detachment to build the Kingdom of God through an “Ever Adaptable Apostolic Availability,” for the glory of God and the advancement of all people, with preferential option for the poor and the underprivileged.

Inspired by faith in the Will of the Father and trust in His providence, we express our commitment to Christ, through an ‘Ever Adaptable Apostolic Availability’ for the service of the Kingdom through integral and Holistic liberation of humanity with preferential option for the poor and the underprivileged.

Our Mission

Stirred by the apostolic zeal of the Founder, every sister of JMJ is ‘always ready to win souls for God’ and ‘wishes to labor like a giant’ with an indomitable missionary spirit in communion with the Church to respond generously to the global mission, in line with the Charism of the Congregation ‘ever adaptable apostolic availability.’
