From the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops:
"The Catholic bishops of the United States are pleased to offer once again to the Catholic faithful Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship (en Español), our teaching document on the political responsibility of Catholics. This statement represents our guidance for Catholics in the exercise of their rights and duties as participants in our democracy. We urge our pastors, lay and religious faithful, and all people of good will to use this statement to help form their consciences; to teach those entrusted to their care; to contribute to civil and respectful public dialogue; and to shape political choices in the coming election in light of Catholic teaching. The statement lifts up our dual heritage as both faithful Catholics and American citizens with rights and duties as participants in the civil order."
All are invited to participate in an upcoming virtual series sponsored by the Archdiocese and the University of St. Thomas titled “Blessed are the Peacemakers.” This series will focus on forming conscience, our Catholic call to be active in the public square and charitable dialogue with those who hold opposing views. Each of the 4 sessions will include a brief talk, opportunity for discussion and Q&A. Sessions are offered at 1 pm and 7 pm.
