History

The Saint Joseph Mission was started 18 years ago when Hermine-Jesus immigrated to the US. But it was not until March 19, 2019 that the organization earned official status. In her early years, Hermine-Jesus learned from her mother to put her time and talents to use by accompanying those in need and to always have compassion for the poorest . To achieve this, she applied herself to studies, earning a couple of graduate degrees in the US and a certification in Spiritual Direction. These empowered her while homeschooling her kids to launch a mission of accompaniment and hospitality here in Colorado while reaching out to the people on the margins in Cameroon. Since then, with the help of her family and friends, many individuals living in the US, both lay and religious, have benefited from attention and guidance. Simultaneously in Cameroon (Africa), where a civil war is now raging and a half a century brutal dictatorial regime have stripe many of their dignity the mission is present to the most vulnerable. Among others, numerous severely handicapped and neglected children, from local orphanages and remote places are receiving access to healthcare and education, their dignity is being raised. Today, with the support of a growing leadership team in Denver, the elderly and afflicted are visited and comforted receiving Spiritual Direction. Likewise, children from far away places in Cameroon are empowered to be self-sufficient and are taught to connect with God and their neighbors.
