+JMJ...Religious community devoted to serving the spiritually and materially poor of the Diocese of Phoenix. The community is world renown and was established by a Russian immigrant, Servant of God Catherine Doherty’s (born 15 August 1896, Russia; RIP 14 December 1985, Canada) Just to share a little about her life. She lived through two World Wars, the Russian Revolution, and the Great Depression. She knew the privileged life of an aristocratic, experienced being a refugee, knew the pain of a broken marriage and the struggles of single parenthood. Through it all, her faith in God and love for Him remained intact and lead her to work with the poor in small, humble ways, forsaking material comforts in order to do so.
Women of God
Her work in social justice in both Canada and the United States lead to the establishment of Friendship House and also a community called Madonna House, which is an apostolate of lay men, women, and priests. Since Catherine’s death in 1985, Madonna House has grown to number more than 200 members, with 23 field houses throughout the world, including one in Winslow, Arizona. In addition, more than 125 priests, deacons and bishops are associates of Madonna House. Preliminary preparations are now underway to request that Catherine Doherty be publicly declared a canonized Saint of the Catholic Church.
