Entertaining Angels: The Dorothy Day Story is truly a saga of one girl's incredible transformation from a sinful lifestyle to one that honored and served God through everything she did. After Dorothy's conversion, she realized that she couldn't continue living her life the way it was now. She needed to work to serve the Lord in all she did. And so in order to do that, she chose to make her life all about peacemaking and fighting for justice. She offered service to the poor, and similar to other great missionaries like Mother Teresa, she was willing to give up all of her own possessions and desires in order to stand up and help for the poor and weak.

Dorothy Day

Born in 1897, right around the turn of the century, she began her life as a journalist and activist. She had a very different lifestyle before she converted to Catholicism. She lived her life very free of rules and regulations, instead deciding to do as she pleased and live her life how she wanted to live it. The problem, however, came with what she chose to do with her life. Besides becoming a Marxist journalist, she chose to live a very non-virtuous life, doing what felt right and what was fun.

Later on in her life, Day went through a significant change, realizing she needed to give up her old ways of life and pursue a faith in Christ. Converting to Catholicism, she quickly realized she could no longer continue to do what she was doing with her life. She needed to undergo a significant change to maintain her faith and to live up to the standard God had called her to. Day began a life of activism and support, doing everything she could to stand up for those who were poor and oppressed. Because of her newfound faith in God, she gave up her journalism and bohemian lifestyle in order to follow Christ and do as she was commanded. She was known for many great works of activism.
