Abstract
This history of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Wichita tends quite
simply to shape and preserve the principal events which marked the time
from the organization of the Community in Abilene in 1888, to the establishment
of the Motherhouse in Wichita in 1990. That the events are not
striking as compared to those which are ordinarily common to historical
narrative is very evident, and for reasons which are obvious. But it
has seemed fitting at this time to dwell for a short space upon the
history of the Community, in the hope that the written study may reveal
the unwritten past. It is furthermore considered appropriate in order
that the present may not forget the past, and that death or time be not
allowed to further obliterate that which we would preserve.
