This will be a very interesting evening, looking at Dorothy Day, who is one of the founders of the Catholic Worker movement.

Pope Francis invites us to explore this path in his Encyclical: ‘Care for Our Common Home’. He reminds us that Jesus ‘makes all things new’ (Rev. 21:5). And he encourages us in the meantime to come together and take charge of this home which has been entrusted to us … God does not aband...

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow
Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die
John Donne

Among all the things that Minnie Bruce was, she was also a part of Friends of Dorothy House. She was part of the Kitchen Crew at our dinners; she sat with guests; she offered advice and sharpened our analysis of our political moment, and how we should be in our community and the world. She also served on our Board of Directors.
It is impossible for me to express how much she will be missed.

View Minnie Bruce Pratt's obituary, send flowers and sign the guestbook.

Another last Wednesday coming up and still no Friends of Dorothy Dinner. I have no idea when we will be able to get back to having them. One thing I do know is that I miss them!

Hi everyone!
It's been a long time since we have been able to have a Friends of Dorothy Dinner.
Another September, and still the risk of Covid is too great for us all to crowd into a basement and eat.
But you can go to this website and vote for us!
Thanks
