Abbi Fraser - Merton in the Maryhouse Kitchen
from Tuesdays with Merton Podcast · host International Thomas Merton Society
An excerpt from Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander lives as permanently as can be on the door entering the dining room in Maryhouse, one of the New York Catholic Worker houses of hospitality. In this personal talk, I hope to explore what it meant to read Merton in the context of living at a Catholic Worker house, and how I believe the Worker and Merton hold the tension of guilt and faithful living in a world inundated with violence. Abbi Fraser, the child of two Protestant pastors, got her BA in Public Affairs from UCLA and instantly dove into the world of the Catholic Worker. Abbi loves talking about God and finds Them most in her friends, protests, and the park.
