ASSOCIATION JEANNE JUGAN
COMMITMENT DAY 1st May, 2017


Each year on 1st May,  our Associates renew their commitment .    This takes place at the end of Mass.  The Associates agree, through this annual promise, to serve Christ with joy and love in the elderly, by following the example and spirituality of St. Jeanne Jugan.
There are 2,129 Associates throughout the world.
 

AJJ  REFLECTIONS - Sydney
WHY I BECAME AN AJJ
I wanted to deepen my faith as I felt I was not doing enough about it!  St. Jeanne Jugan has helped me so much.
 
I had some family problems along the way and the AJJ helped me to sort myself out.  Problems arise from time top time but with St. Jeanne Jugan, I can cope.
 
It was the Lord that led me to the Association many years ago, and I love St. Jeanne Jugan very much.  I love to assist the Sisters in their work.

 
When I was invited to the Association Jeanne Jugan I wondered what was the difference from volunteering.  I soon felt the deeper call and I love to help the Little Sisters.
​
 
I can see the hand of God in the way St. Jeanne Jugan was led and the way God is leading me.  I love her spirituality and try to read something of her or the Congregation of the Little Sisters of the Poor  every day.
