Share in the spirituality with Association of Jeanne Jugan

Approved by the Church on September 5, 1998, The Association Jeanne Jugan is a work proper to the Congregation of the Little Sisters of the Poor, created with the purpose of enabling lay people to share the apostolic riches of the Congregation and of helping to spread the charism of Jeanne Jugan.

The Jeanne Jugan Associates live its spirit, which is the evangelical spirit of the beatitudes. They share in the charism of the foundress of the Little Sisters of the Poor, a charism distinguished by its simplicity: recognizing Jesus in the Elderly poor.

Consequently, they commit themselves: to give greater vitality to their faith, to be witnesses of a profound Christian life, to witness to the “Gospel of life.”
