How do faith and society, religion and politics, connect? A variety of helpful resources, including videos, bulletin inserts and prayers about faith and promoting a more just society are available at  Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship.

The Catholic approach to faithful citizenship rests on moral principles found in Scripture and Catholic moral and social teaching as well as in the hearts of all people of good will. These themes provide a moral framework for decisions in public life.

The Catholic Church does not endorse or oppose any candidates or a particular political party. Advocacy for or endorsement of a particular candidate or party is not permitted. Rarely, if ever, does a candidate comprehensively represent Catholic views on issues.
