A highly sought after speaker, Catherine gave thousands upon thousands of talks and lectures during her life, beginning shortly after her arrival on the shores of Canada in 1921. Her audiences were incredibly diverse: business men’s associations, convents, rural communities, universities, priests and bishops, women’s groups, government officials, and many others.

For over 50 years she criss-crossed North America lecturing and writing for magazines, as well as authoring over 35 books. Her words were fleshed out by a life totally given for others. She had a gift of shedding light on the gospel as it makes its challenge known in the nitty-gritty affairs of everyday living. Her spirituality is incarnational—one to touch, hear, feel—to be lived.
