The logo of St. Joseph Region, beautiful in its simplicity, offers profound thoughts to be pondered in the hearts of those who would capture the depth of its powerful meaning.

The darker green of the background symbolizes the commitment of the Grey Nuns to the environment and the hope that our united efforts will contribute to global awareness of the dangers threatening our entire universe.

The heart symbolizes the spirituality of compassion, the legacy of St. Marguerite d’Youville, Mother of Universal Charity, and our challenge to be a prayerful presence and transformative, prophetic witness to the love of God to all as brothers and sisters.

The Cross, symbol of God’s unconditional love, represents the philosophy of Marguerite and the Grey Nuns that every successful undertaking is built on the Cross, that every human person is the image of God, and that trust in Divine Providence conquers all obstacles.

The daisy (also known as a marguerite) symbolizes the great yet humble St. Marguerite whose spirit and spirituality have inspired women and men of every age to minister to and advocate for those most in need.
