Description

These pages tell the story of the Sisters of St Joseph of Goulburn, one of the Josephite Congregations that carried out the vision of Father Julian Tenison Woods and St Mary of the Cross MacKillop. The book traces the lives and work of the Sisters in bringing a Catholic education to remote and isolated children in south west New South Wales. It covers the years from the foundation of the Congregation in Goulburn in 1882 to its merger or fusion with the Sisters of St Joseph of the Sacred Heart in 2012.

As well as looking at the lives of the Sisters it gives a sense of life in the many small and often remote places where they established schools, and the events in both Church and State that impacted upon their lives. In the pages of the book it is possible to imagine the Sisters going about their daily tasks, meeting challenges as they had to be faced while resolutely following what they discerned was being asked of them at each stage of their journey.
