DOROTHY DAY-

PATRON SAINT

OF THE WORKING CLASS.

~~~

Dear Dorothy, servant of God,

Please intercede for us

So that the love of Christ-

He for us and we for Him-

Will transform the world

Into a society in accordance

With the will of Our Eternal

Labouring Father.

~

Thus by the Grace of God’s

Holy Spirit flooding the hearts

Of humanity via the hands

Of Our Lady may love reign

And justice and equality

Exist for all of human kind.

An objective which communism

And other political ‘isms’ have attacked

Via generating divisions used for the

Purpose of personal and sectional

Interests and not that of humanity

As a whole.


Liam Ó Comáin,Derry City,Ireland.

I was assigned to read The Long Loneliness in my senior year at Notre Dame, just as I was going out into the world. Dorothy Day showed me it was possible to give my life to Christ in our world today. Isn’t that what saints do for us?

Dear members of the Dorothy Day Guild,  We are writing to share the sad news that our friend Patrick Jordan, former editor of The Catholic Worker , founding member of the Guild, and close friend of Dorothy’s, died last week on Thursday, October 2nd. Pat joined the Catholic Worker movement in 1968, and met his wife, Kathleen DeSutter Jordan, working together on the soupline soon afterwards.

Dear members of the Dorothy Day Guild, Hello! We hope that as always, this missive finds each of you well in these final days of summer. After a slightly slower-paced August, the Guild is now gearing up for an exciting autumn season as we approach the 45th anniversary of Dorothy’s death this November 29th, the day that we hope will very soon be celebrated as her feast day.
