Sisters of St. Joseph Society

For more than 170 years, the Sisters of St. Joseph have held a prominent place in the legacy of the OLV organizations. Predating Father Nelson Baker’s arrival in 1876, the Sisters of St. Joseph worked tirelessly to care for infants, abandoned children, troubled youth. In addition, they dutifully educated tens of thousands of young people at campus high schools and Our Lady of Victory Elementary.
