Catherine McAuley was born in the Ireland of Grattan’s a gay flamboyant period. There were two sides of Ireland one where the majority cried under the pressure of the penal enactments. This land was filled with unemployment, poverty, and malnutrition.

(In Dublin alone at this time there were 2,000 alehouses, 1,200 Brandy shops, and 300 taverns )

Education facilities were lacking by the rule of the Parliament Act and prohibition of Catholicism that had effectively eliminated the catholic Irish from the occupations and from any form of political power in their own country, being Catholic in Dublin was being poor.

Urbanization only created spiritual and administrative problems, not to forget sanitary and social problems, these wrongs were named as the Third world situation in nineteenth-century Ireland.

In this light, her inherited wealth was a trust to be used for the benefit of others. However, the Callaghans' large fortune was the least important of her qualifications for launching her Dublin-based work of mercyThe harvest of her hidden years in Coolock was a far more valuable asset, and because she made room in her life for everything she encountered by the grace of God and in imitation of Christ, she made herself immediately available to Dubliners by providing certain essential services that were not otherwise available. It's been said that she and Daniel O'Connell were both born to right Ireland's wrongs - he at the level of legislative negotiation, she at the level of public opinion.

Available evidence also indicated his capacity as a builder on the former St Mary's Chapel on LiffeyStreet. This chapel, which was later replaced by the Pro-Cathedral in 1825. Catherine McAuley, freed from the criminal tradition of reducing Catholicism to the narrow streets and alleys of Irish cities and towns, would one day establish a major Catholic powerhouse in Baggot Street, the nerve center of fashionable Gicongian Dublin. James' career was paralleled by his college-aged John Conway, where he married his daughter Elinor despite the age difference of almost thirty years apart. There was even greater opposition to James McAuley's Catholicism. Religion was of little concern to Elinor Conway. who was described as a young, attractive, and smug philosopher", a lady of excellent principles but somewhat devout, opposed, and unappreciative of Christian philanthropy that would encourage her husband to befriend and help the poor and influence his children in her home. On her Husband's death, Elinor McAuley is believed to have taken care of her children, Elinor McAuley's liberal notions of tolerance and casual demeanor are seen as a detrimental influence on her children Mary and James, just as she had a positive influence on Catherine, as their father did, From his mother, who was kind, meticulous, and charming.

Catherine McAuley inherited a mixture of refinement and culture from her mother which benefit her later on.
From her father, she learned the truths of Christ, prayer, steadfast faith, the integrity of character, outstanding qualities of leadership, and sensitivity to the need of the poor. James McAuley’s death in 1783, brought a lot of changes in the household. The family moved from stormanstown to Glasnevin Road and settled at 52 Queen street where they shared a house with Mrs. George a non-Catholic friend of Elinor.
years later Elinor was misspending James wealth and property. From 1784 onwards her children were exposed to anti-catholic influences. On Elinor’s death bed in 1798 her remorse had an intense disturbing effect on Catherine.
Catherine opted to live with her uncle, Dr. Owen Conway who’s daughter Anne she was very close to and whose orphan child she would later in the future take into protection.
Later that year the Conway financial situation was unstable due to the outcrop of gambling debts and so Catherine was obligated to accept Armstrong’s hospitality. The Armstrong’s environment was one where Catholicism was forbidden, ridiculed, and calumniated. Living with the Armstrong’s were one of the most stressful time since she was not allowed to fully express her Catholicism.
Catherine was fortune enough to get great advice and counsel from Rev. Andrew Lubéwho became Dean of Dublin, Dr. Daniel Murray, future Archbishop, Dr. Michael Blake, subsequently Bishop of Dromore, Fr Edward Armstrong of St Andrew's, Fr Joseph Nugent of Liffey Street, Rev. Thomas Betagh, SJ, then engaged in pastoral work in Dublin.

Catherine's soul friend, Father Edward Armstrong, died on Ascension Thursday in 1828. She deprived "the spiritual solace of any living person". The way he died, Catherine was so sure that her path was surrender by the providence of God which was so obviously guiding her. "Do not put your trust in any human being but place all your confidence in God alone". Catherine reminded that her works were the object of providence with guidance. Another advice would be, " Put your whole confidence in God. He will never see you want necessities for yourself or children". Bishop John Murphy of Cork was waiting for a day to announce Catherine in his Sister of Divine Providence but first he didn't have Catherine trust. In Baggot Street Catherine work started to develop faster and society always had something of criticism. They hoped that Catherine would not marry and dubbed her house "Kitty's Folly". At the same time Catherine was wooing a growing circle of young ladies who some would form the nucleus towards the unintentionally drifting. Between these the Fanny Tghe who later entered the Presentation Sisters in Galway, Anan Maria Doyle, who was the first cloister life but with Catherine's vision nd daring, also Georgiana Moore, to be a member of Catholicism and successful governess. In 1828 Catherine entrusted the training of both Macauley and Byrn children. Elizabeth Harley, Mary Teresa Macauley, Marcella Flynn and Margaret Dunne would join the group in 1829. In 1830 Mary Anne Delany and Caroline Murphy would join too. In the early gathering Elizabeth Harley and Anna Maria Doyle were to show the forth first flowering and mustard seen of mercy who was already rooted in the heart of Catherine McAuley. These permanent helpers, Catherine received temporary support from Catholic inhabitants of Dublin's stately mansions in Merrion and Fitzwilliam squares.

The misses O'Connell and Costelloe were dedicated helpers. For the Christmas dinner the liberator carved the meat for the poor children and also earned a place in it. "That great and good man, O'Connell, who was then Catholic member for Clare. He it was who later secured Catholic Emancipation for Ireland". The future solicitor, Charles Cavanagh, of Baggot Street community was another person that Catherine McAuley became acquainted at the time of 1827 to 1828. In 1825 Catherine and Fanny Tighe visited France to find out of the personal supervision the French Catholic education system was like. The Catholic education in France was left of desires, also Catherine gathered ideas on organization and teaching methods which could come back to Ireland. Catherine was mostly interested in the teaching methods of the Kildare Place Society. She professed the religion of the non-Catholics with whom she was connected. The Kildare Place welcomed Catherine to their classroom. They explained to her the teaching practice and according to the early convent manuscript, "they initiated her into their method of inducing Catholic children to attend under the idea that there would be no interference with their religion, while at the same time the work of proselytism was slowly, silently but successfully carried on". Catherine also took the names of all Catholic pupils in the school. They they contacted the parents and explained the benefits of a Catholic education and by this it recruited the first pupils for Baggot Street School. The parents were more in deep in the visitation of the homes of the poor and that Catherine was not only outclassed contemporary educators but out-versioned education theorist in recent times. Catherine agreed that Anna Maria Doyle and Catherine Byrn would assist in Baggot Street in the early September of 1827. They moved in on September for the feast of Our Lady Of Mercy but Catherine didn't moved in permanently until the following May. She was proximate control with her eldest niece, "my darling Mary Teresa" was a frequent visitor and supervisor.

Twi and three hundred children enrolled in the poor school on opening-day. An orphanage was opened to house but the 1827 fever epidemic and the night refuge shortly. Catherine still provided guidance along the path of self-giving to God and of service to the poor on whom she propped lavish. The things that Catherine did was for love's command, the love for God and love for others. Because of that she went in the areas of pre-school, primary and technical education, catechetic and adult education, child care, rehabilitation, geriatrics and social work but she was blazed on the secondary education through the pension schools. Over all these works, they were names under the Church, all stamped with a strong Catholic image, and by a common denominator of evangelization. The pension schools began in Carlow in 1837,Catherine McAuley's expanding apostolic program and reality long before Daniel O'Connel's great Emancipation victory of 1829. He hoped that the young girls would be prepared before the time they face adulthood. "Since whatever station they are destined to fill, their example and their advice will always have great influence and wherever a religion woman presides, peace and good order are generally to be found", this was more in deep in sentiments, pursued with courage, faith in a woman for the betterment of society. "The infinite love God bears to souls who repose in his protection."

Georgiana Moore described Catherine McAuley in the most stunning way later Sister m. Clare who described her first meeting with the foundress in 1828.
Catherine was upward of 40 but looked at least 10 years younger. She was very fair, brilliant color cheeks but not too red. Her face was a short oval with a perfect contour. Catherine lips were thin and her mouth rather wide. The most agreeable feature in her face. Her eyes were light blue and remarkably round with the brows and lashes colorless. These described in a sort of way of expression of reading your thoughts, which made you feel that even your mind was in her power and you couldn't hide anything from her. Her nose was straight thick. She has bands made from her own back hair which was well managed as to be quite free from disagreeable look bands. The color was pale golden not in the least sandy, but very fine and silky. She dressed in black British Merino which was the fashion of back then. It fitted tight to her shape, and she was round but not in the least heavy. She had a good carriage. her hands were remarkably white but very clumsy, large and a broad square tips to the fingers and short square nails. The pale golden.. very fine silky hair preserved in Carysfort and a miniature in Baggot Street shortly after Catherine Mcauely's death confirm. This was Catherine's expression of calm strength which suggest constant reliance on a help that could not fail. These characteristics were mentioned in the account of her death circulated to all Convents of Mercy by Sister M. Elizabeth Moore.

Catherine taught the people needlework, knitting, and homecrafts; she showed their finished products in a repository she had rented next door, enticing her friends to buy them, and using the proceeds to meet the girls' numerous needs.
Augustus Orestes Brown- son, an American philosopher-economist, praised Catherine's practicality in this matter in 1873, in his Quarterly Review, extolling her "wisdom to do the work nearest to hand her desire to put the poor - especially the children - in the way of earning their own living. her aim to educate and elevate these children."
Catherine's Sisters of Mercy would expand on this self-help ideology.

from the moment it was founded (1788). Existing schools were typically overcrowded mud huts with inadequate furniture and equipment, and in certain cities, such as Dublin, the lack of Catholic chapels and the prevalence of pauperism meant that the Confraternity could only reach a fraction of people it aimed to assist. With the lifting of the 1709 prohibition and the steady progress toward freedom, the Church was compelled to provide regular religious instruction for Catholics, particularly the poor. Although substantial educational progress had been made by the time Catherine McAuley was about to start her mission of mercy, the situation was still dire.

During Catherine's planning period, which lasted from 1823 to 1827, the influence of Rev. Joseph Nugent, Rev. Edward Armstrong, and Dr. Michael Blake was crucial in the formation of her designs. All three, along with newly-consecrated Archbishop Daniel Murray (1823), provided her with practical advice that, combined with her own vision and courage, galvanised contemporary Dublin's social consciousness and released a flood of mercy that, delta-like, would spread into ever-widening channels of charity and benevolence. And, just as every torrent begins with a trickle, Catherine of Dublin's torrent of kindness began with a simple act of mercy.

Around 1803 she joined the Callaghan household. Like the Armstrongs, the Callaghans opposed to Catholicism and only allowed Catherine to keep on practicing her religion as long as it was not in their property. This did not keep Catherine sad as she was so loving and devoted to God, that she could feel his presence anywhere in the house. Later on when Catherine became a bit older, she was granted permission to attend masses. It was at Coolock that she became to understand the church and what fasting and abstinence were.

As the time went by, Mrs. Callaghan got bedridden for two years from an illness that was going around. Catherine McAuley took up the challenge to nurse her and read to her daily, in hopes for her to get better. Even though Mrs. Callaghan was being nursed, it was still not enough, and sadly, died in the year 1819 who was then followed by her husband three years later, in 1882. Catherine was then left with a large sum of money and the rest of the estate by Mr. Callaghan in his will stating that he was leaving for his kind and affection friend Catherine McAuley.

Catherine is now forty-four years old now, and has shown herself as a peacemaker. Catherine McAuley's words to one made her win tolerance, understanding and admiration in those that didn't believe in her religion. .
In 1822, She returned to Dublin as a heiress from a wealthy family. Catherine McAuleys brother James became a surgeon in the military and her sister Mary was married to a surgeon Dr. William Mcauley.

It is because of her tiumphing that she then came to form a new Ireland, where one tends to those who are poor and in need.

In many places that catherine would go to, people would look up to her and name her: "The sainted Catherine McAuley" because of her faith, kindness and nobility. Catherine was so caring that she herself attended to a sick protestant old woman named Mrs. Harper, for three years. Catherine did this out of pure love, and even though she expected nothing, she received nothing but hatred, ingratitude and abuse. Catherine McAuley was a sweet woman with a pure soul, that she never thought of quitting the things she did. Instead she held her head high and would tell those that would show hatred and ingrstitude towards her one word. That word was "MERCY." She never thought about doing something to get revenge or teach those a lesson for belittling her, because before she started her works, she set her mind to one thing. That was to always help those in need and to do everything in her power to help the hungry, the poor, the cold, those that needed love and comfort and those that wished to be wanted. Wealth was something that did not matter to her.

For christ and his poor she would readily renounce her wealth, marriage proposals, her social position, and to accept cold, hunger and want. This is what she said:

"God knows I would rather be cold and hungry than that the poor in Kingstown or elsewhere should be deprived of any consolation in our power to afford them."

eneidacocom — 2021-09-30 18:13:27 UTC

I guess we can say that Catherine McAuley was a strong and dedicated woman after the loss of her families. She moved on with her life, made great deeds and became one of the most respected women, she became a role model to those that she helped, who were turned down when they needed help the most and became recognized and written down in history.
