Is faith a work in your thought?

I wouldn't argue with that definition. However, I believe the average Catholic doesn't see "work" in that light.

IMO there is a vast difference in CATHOLIC thought and "Catholic" understanding.

Frankly, I believe the Protestant has the better argument concerning Faith, Grace, and Works.

Oh, if we could only all work with the same dictionary. Sigh!
