Faithful Citizenship


This weekend we started a preaching series that will last for five weeks. We are focusing on the what has been produced by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, regarding Faithful Citizenship. We are using their document Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political responsibility from the Catholic Bishops of the United States. We have some copies of the document available for you on the tables in the back of church. You can also download a copy here and get a summary of the document here. Also on their main site there are plenty of resources for you to explore in more depth the topics we will be covering during the homily. They also have sections for families and children not old enough to vote, to help with the discussions at home. We will try to get a copy of each homily online by Sunday afternoon.
