In 1657, Father Jean-Pierre Medaille, SJ, first published the 100 Maxims of Perfection he had written as guidance for the Sisters of St. Joseph, as well as lay persons "who seek a life with God."
We encourage you to share the Maxims by e-mailing them to friends and family.
To locate a particular Maxim, scroll through the drop-down menu below, then click "Select."
