New Kansas City CW Will Nurture Creativity and ‘a Listening Society’

Casa Juan Diego Christmas Appeal

We know that the person in need who comes to our door is not just Maria Garcia or Samuel Smith, but the Lord himself present in the poor. We Catholic Workers are just a few. We cannot solve all the problems of people seeking help, but we can, with the help of our readers, provide what may seem like just a few loaves and fishes. We pray that the Lord may transform and multiply them.

St. Peter Claver CW Appeal for Sustaining Contributors

As we have worked to establish the Motels4Now program and ensure its sustainability, we have struggled to meet the monthly financial obligations of Our Lady of the Road and our Catholic Worker household. Would you please consider helping on a monthly basis and inviting others in your circle to do so? Together, we can continue practicing the works of mercy, listening for the promptings of God’s Spirit.

A Lenten Appeal from Simone Weil Catholic Worker

This Lent, we invite you to support our work financially. We are so grateful for the support offered to our community during the Advent season, which gave us a few months of peace of mind. However, this spring, we are now once again facing a monthly shortfall. Donations, especially recurring donations of any size, are greatly appreciated!
