Through Mary MacKillop Today, the vision of Australia’s first Saint and of the Sisters of Saint Joseph is being realised.
In the spirit of Mary MacKillop, we work in partnership to help create generational change through the teaching of practical life skills to women, men and children in Australia and beyond.
The core principles of Mary MacKillop Today are Human Dignity, Common Good, Participation and Subsidiarity and Option for the Poor.
The achievement of our mission is dependent on the contribution of many people, including our partners, supporters, Board of Directors and of course — our staff.
For over 150 years members of the SOSJ have been committed to demonstrating the love of God in real and practical ways.
Mary was born in Victoria to Scottish immigrants. At the age of 24 she dedicated her life to God and took on the name “Mary of the Cross”.
