Catholic Worker: 1936 - 2021 / Tending a NYC Soup Kitchen

Your BCR hosts were surprised and honored when Catholic Worker, Bud Courtney, took us up the wooden stairs of Maryhouse to Dorothy Day's bedroom for our conversation on the Catholic Worker's soup kitchen feeding the the poor and homeless, We were joined by Joann Kennedy who heads up Maryhouse. They told us that Day had lived the last years of her life and died in the room in which we were recording. We talked about Bud's and Joann's commitment to serving their neighbors in need both with food and clothing, as well as humane and respectful moral support.

Early in this BCR episode, we caught-up with Corinne Low of UWS Open Hearts on the plight of the homeless men in the Lucerne Hotel on the UWS of Manhattan.
