Welcome to the Brothers of St. John of God in Westville Grove, N.J.

Welcome to our web site of the Hospitaller Order of St. John of God. We are happy that you have chosen to have a look at what we as Brothers in the Church are about. You will notice throughout this site the various missions that we are involved in. Throughout the world we minister to the sick, poor and marginalized as well as those who are struggling either spiritually or physically. I encourage you to visit us often to keep informed of our many activities that we host. We do this in the manner of our Father, St. John of God.
Again I welcome you and I hope you enjoy your visit.

The call to Brotherhood is a special invitation to serve God. Unique and distinct from the ordained priesthood, the call to brother is a call to minister to people as "one of them."

 We invite you to learn more about our Order, and welcome any questions you may have by encouraging you to email or call Brother Thomas Osorio, Director of Vocations, at 856 848-4700 .ext 163

The Church Celebrates a Jubilee Year
This year the Church celebrates a Jubilee Year marking the 2000 Anniversary of the birth of St. Paul, the Apostle. St. Paul was inspired and motivated by the words and deeds of Jesus Christ. Today we are inspired and motivated through the teachings and letters of St. Paul.

Please join the Hospitaller Brothers of St. John of God in praying for vocations to Religious Life, more specifically to our Order.

O Jesus, divine shepherd of souls, who called the Apostles to become fishers of men, now call the ardent and generous hearts of our youth to make them your followers and ministers. Let them share your thirst for that universal redemption for which you daily renew your sacrifice upon the altar. O Lord Jesus, "always living to make intercession for us," extend our horizons to the entire world, where so many brethren make silent supplication for the light of truth and the warmth of love, so that answering your call, many young men may prolong here your mission, edify your mystical body, the Church, and become "the salt of the earth and the light of the world."

Extend, O Lord, your loving call to many pure and generous hearted young women, that they may grow in their desire for evangelical perfection and may dedicate themselves to the service of the Church and their neighbors who so desperately need such assistance and charity, Amen.

Pope Paul VI, April 11, 1964
