Bloomington Christian Radical Catholic Worker Community

Mission: Hospitality to the Poor, Nonviolence, Simplicity and Children

From www.ic.org/directory/the-bloomington-christian-radical-catholic-worker-community/:

The Bloomington Christian Radical/Catholic Worker (BCR/CW) is a community in the tradition of the Catholic Worker Movement. The Catholic Worker Movement lives the vision of Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin, who believed that a peaceable revolution would result if people imitated Jesus Christ’s nonviolence (Matt 5:38-48), voluntary poverty (Matt 6:24, 19:16-26), and radical hospitality (Matt 25:31-46). The BCR/CW is an ecumenical Christian intentional community that tries to live, pray and work with each other. We offer housing, food, and love to people facing homelessness. The BCR/CW is autonomous and has no institutional connection to the Roman Catholic Church. We are not a 501c3 and donations are not tax-deductible. We perform the works of mercy and nonviolently oppose the works of war. We strive to practice the Sermon on the Mount, community living, voluntary poverty, personalism, and care for children and the environment.
