Prayer
When jailed for 30 days in
the summer of 1957 for refusing to participate in compulsory
civil defense drills, Dorothy Day's thoughts turned to prayer.
Dorothy was able to borrow clothes
to attend Mass, which was for her "a necessity." She asked the
chaplain to help her obtain her Bible, missal, and breviary. (A
link to the Liturgy of the Hours--daily prayer--is provided in
the column to the right.)
The St. Benedict Catholic Worker
carries on the work of resisting war. Prayer continues to be "a necessity."
Join the St. Benedict Catholic
Worker for Friday Vespers, Roundtable, and pot luck dinner
