 "The greatest challenge of the day is: how to bring about a revolution of the heart, a revolution which has to start with each one of us?"
This section is devoted to the writings and life of Dorothy Day who co-founded the Catholic Worker Movement with Peter Maurin in 1933.
Looking for Letters from Dorothy Day
Marquette University Press is preparing a volume of letters from Dorothy Day edited by Robert Ellsberg. We believe many letters from Dorothy Day remain in private hands. If you have such letters, please contact Phil Runkel at (414) 288-5903 or by email Phil.Runkel@marquette.edu, to arrange sending a copy for inclusion in the book.

Prayer For The Canonization
of Servant of God
Dorothy Day
Merciful God, you called your servant
Dorothy Day to show us the face of
Jesus in the poor and forsaken.
By constant practice
of the works of mercy,
she embraced poverty and witnessed
steadfastly to justice and peace.
Count her among your saints
and lead us all to become friends of
the poor ones of the earth,
and to recognize you in them.
We ask this through your Son
Jesus Christ, bringer of good news
to the poor. Amen
