(Note: “The Aims and Means of The Catholic Worker” which was originally penned by Dorothy in 1940\, is commonly identified as a sort of mission statement or manifesto for the movement\, yet it has not been substantially updated since the late 1980s.) Through engaging in our traditional practice of “the clarification of thought through roundtable discussions”\, we wish to lift up the wisdom of those who are presently engaged in this holy work of hospitality and nonviolence\, including their allies and networks of support\, as collectively we consider what God and the times are inviting us to embrace… and to resist. \nSponsored by Casa Maria Catholic Worker and the Nuclear Resister \nMartha Hennessy\, seventh grandchild of Dorothy Day\, divides her time between the family farm in Vermont and practicing the works of mercy at Maryhouse Catholic Worker in New York City.\nShe is 71\, a retired occupational therapist\, and grandmother of nine. She has been imprisoned for protesting war and nuclear power/weapons\, the use of drones\, and the torture of prisoners in Guantanamo and US prisons. Martha travels and speaks on the current topics of her Catholic faith\, her grandmother Dorothy Day’s life\, work in community\, Catholic Social Teaching\, war and peace\, nuclear abolition\, and peacemaking efforts in the tradition of the Catholic Worker movement. \nMark Colville is a resident member (since 1994) of the Amistad Catholic Worker in New Haven\, Connecticut. He currently spends a good deal of time doing leadership development and community organizing\, both in the streets of New Haven and on its margins\, with the Unhoused Activist Community Team (U-ACT). Along with his partner\, Luz Catarineau\, Mark is also a co-creator of Rosette Neighborhood Village\, an autonomous backyard encampment and tiny homes village for unhoused neighbors located on the grounds of the Amistad house of hospitality (watch the pbs documentary here: https://www.pbs.org/show/where-then-shall-we-go/).
