Sisters of St. Joseph
In 1902 nine Sisters of St. Joseph from the mother-house at Le Puy took charge of the school in the French parish of St-Roch, Fall River, Massachusetts. The accession of other members from the mother-house enabled the community to take charge of three other schools in the city attached to French parishes. In 1906 St. Theresa's Convent was formally opened as the provincial house of the community, which was legally incorporated in the same year, and a novitiate was established. In the mid 1970s, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Fall River merged with the Springfield Congregation.
St. Mary of the Snow - St. Joseph Church (Saugerties, New York)
Father Power was followed by Denis Paul O'Flynn as pastor. In 1892 the church was seriously damaged by fire, but repaired and renovated by Father O'Flynn. The church features a high steeple, traditional stained glass windows, including a Tiffany window depicting the Virgin Mary at the Assumption. O’Flynn also built the original rectory in 1879 which became the sisters convent/school in 1881. The church was restored again in 1989 following a March 26 Easter Sunday fire.
