From the article:

“People are looking for the Catholic Worker in these spaces and not finding it,” he says. Kayser also has his own Instagram and Facebook presence, in which he regularly shares Day’s quotes in the form of memes.
In November 2022, Kayser and Lydia Wong, a Chicago Catholic Worker, also started their own podcast, Coffee with Catholic Workers. They interviewed Workers young and old, highlighting the voices and experiences of a diverse movement. Kayser has taken the Worker’s communicative message seriously. “Dorothy repeatedly refers to it as a media organization,” Kayser says.
Nevertheless, he has encountered plenty of older Workers who are skeptical about the Catholic Worker having a social media presence. And he does agree, to a certain extent, about the dangers of becoming “too online.” “The Worker is something to be lived and experienced in the real world,” he says.

Find Theo on Facebook or Instagram. His podcast Coffee with Catholic Workers can be found on most platforms or on YouTube (here) for those who don't do podcasts.

Racial History Tour of Calvary Cemetery + Prayer to Protect Oak Flat

Racial History Tour of Calvary Cemetery 1:00 pm Sunday, October 19 As we approach All Souls Day and Black Catholic History Month, learn about the racial history of Catholic St. Louis by joining us for a tour of Calvary Cemetery.

Participants have the option to travel between stops either by bike or b...

A Christmas Appeal from The STL Catholic Worker

A Christmas Appeal from The STL Catholic Worker “It is no use to say that we are born two thousand years too late to give room to Christ. Nor will those who live at the end of the world have been born too late. Christ is always with us, always asking for room in our hearts. He said that a glass of water given to a beggar was given to Him. He made heaven hinge on the way we act towards Him in his disguise of commonplace, frail and ordinary human beings. And to those who say, aghast, that they never had a chance to do such a thing, that they lived two thousand years too late, he will say again what they had the chance of knowing all their lives, that if these things were done for the very least of his brethren they were done for Him. They are Christ, asking us to find room for Him exactly as He did at the first Christmas.” - Dorothy Day “They evicted us from that abandoned building,” Brett told me as I handed him a couple burritos. “We didn’t know they were coming. I was away and t...
