Publication by The Alliance Catholic Worker 830 Freedom Ave. Alliance, Ohio (330) 913-7051 The Alliance Catholic Worker is a community in the Catholic Worker tradition founded by Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin, based in Alliance, Ohio. The community has a house of hospitality and exists to serve the local community. The Catholic Worker tradition is a return to ancient Christianity where houses of hospitality were established to serve the poor (Council of Carthage 436) and where there was never justification for killing (Apostolic letters of Hippolytus 205-225 AD) or usury (St Jerome 400AD). Therefore in Union with Christ and his Church, and in communion with the Saints, we reject theologies of militarism, empire, and economics based on exploitation or greed as idolatrous. More importantly, we work toward building a culture of life (Evangelium Vitae, JPII, 1993) where the dignity of persons is respected and where it is easier to be good.
