Welcome to TriState Associate website!

“Through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we gather to share prayer, ideas, resources, and challenges — empowered to carry our broadened vision to our communities.”

Shared Mission

Walk alongside our Sisters in carrying forward a charism of faith, service, and love.

Community & Prayer

Regular prayer, faith-sharing, retreats, and lasting friendships rooted in shared spirituality.

Faith in Action

Bring the charism into your home, workplace, and neighborhood through meaningful ministry.

Who We Are

The Tri-State Conference of Associate Leadership
