I may not be in Rome when her canonization occurs. But I will be able to say I was on the inaugural voyage of the Dorothy Day Staten Island ferry.

A reminder that her life and holiness was rooted in this city, which she loved, in response to the needs of the poor, the demands of history, and the call to peace: in jails, on picket lines, in houses of hospitality, in churches, tenements, parks, and yes, on the SI ferry.

She's my hero.

I am reminded of the unfairness attendant to all the hoopla regarding a Dorothy Day canonization or a ferry named after her that totally fails to acknowledge the saintly and singular influence of Peter Maurin - buried in a nondescript grave in Quuens. It's Peter without Paul.

So happy for you! You were so blessed to have worked with her.

I think you will be. Dorothy has ways of making things happen. She may ask God to give you a miracle. She did for me.
