“...the life <strong>of</strong> <strong>Catherine</strong> <strong>Doherty</strong> presents<br />

extraordinary signs <strong>of</strong> the action <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>.<br />

“In the first place, the fruits <strong>of</strong> holiness in the<br />

service <strong>of</strong> charity and as far as the poor and<br />

the conversion <strong>of</strong> sinners are concerned.<br />

“If she is canonized, her life will speak to our<br />

contemporaries by:<br />

• the example <strong>of</strong> a consecrated lay sanctity,<br />

• the fruitfulness <strong>of</strong> service to the poor<br />

carried out in total detachment,<br />

• the power and the necessity <strong>of</strong> the<br />

contemplative life in our civilization,<br />

• the strength <strong>of</strong> love <strong>of</strong> the Church and the<br />

grace <strong>of</strong> forgiveness which gives birth to an<br />

authentic Marian piety.<br />

“Everything I have learned and have been able<br />

to intuit about <strong>Catherine</strong> makes me desire<br />

deeply that her cause will result in a positive<br />

decision <strong>of</strong> the Holy Father. That is one grace<br />

that I ask <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong> for the Church.”<br />

— Cardinal Jean Marie Lustiger<br />

In this insightful book, Fr. <strong>Robert</strong> <strong>Wild</strong>—the<br />

postulator for <strong>Catherine</strong> <strong>Doherty</strong>’s cause—will<br />

date on the current progress <strong>of</strong> her cause for<br />
