No Party Line

Summary: Points to the Little Way of St. Therese of Lisieux as the way to respond to the suffering and tragedy around us. Ties Therese’s desire to increase love in the world with acts of protest, picketing, speaking out – the importance of even one person’s actions and collaborating with others who affirm life. (The Catholic Worker, April 1952, 1, 7 DDLW #184).
