Was just wondering if there are any catholic workers here at wrong planet?

For those of you who are not aware of the Christian Anarchist Catholic Worker I have got a link below all about our community in London.

The article came out today in the Times.

Much peace to you all

Chris.

Catholic Work is never finished topic

Great article. Part of my family is Catholic, so I was exposed to the religion. Even if you are agnostic, their ideas are worth a second look. I also investigated a link to a writer called Jonathan Sacks, and his article was an eye opener for humans to humble themselves and to eliminate debilitating arrogance in themselves and the world, in order to save the planet Earth. :)

While I am not a Catholic Worker, I have met at least two in London, and they do great works of mercy in their community as well as the peace activism that they are renowned for.

Is that the same as the Catholic Worker Movement? My sister is interested in them. She likes them a lot.
