Dorothy Day on St. Thérèse: “To her God was a consuming flame”

Last updated on: October 1, 2012 at 11:24 pm By Dawn Eden

Today the Church celebrates St. Thérèse of Lisieux, the Carmelite nun fondly known as the Little Flower who, through her “Little Way,” revealed the path of sanctity to people from every kind of background and every state of life. Dorothy Day, who herself has been put forth as a candidate for sainthood, was so deeply inspired by the Little Flower that she wrote a book about her. In a 1949 article for the Catholic Worker, she tried to capture how... Read more

Entering into the “memories of God”

Last updated on: September 27, 2012 at 11:12 pm By Dawn Eden

I wrote yesterday about how “I have come to believe that people who have suffered trauma as a result of the abuses that are widespread in secular society—the sins committed against the family and against the dignity of the human person—are going to be vital members of the next generation of Christian witnesses.” Today I would like to tell you about one of those survivors, whose witness inspired me when I was writing My Peace I Give You.

St. Vincent de Paul: Sufferings and trials “make us like Christ our Lord”

Last updated on: September 27, 2012 at 9:41 pm By Dawn Eden

Today the Church celebrates St. Vincent de Paul (c. 1580-1660), one of the Church’s greatest patrons of the suffering and of those who minister to them. He himself was well acquainted with suffering.

Welcome! My name is Dawn Eden, and, after more than ten years blogging on and off (mostly on) at my personal blog The Dawn Patrol, I am delighted that Patheos has given me the opportunity to start this new blog focusing on those whom the Holy Father has so beautifully called “‘translations’ of Jesus”: the saints. I was born into a Jewish family, but lost my faith in my late teens and became an agnostic. During my twenties, in the 1990s,... Read more
