Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: The US Bishops’ Reflection on Catholic Teaching and Political Life

This document of the Bishops is very important for Catholics seeking to follow their conscience in voting. We must not simply pay attention to the loudest voice on social media. We must pray, study and think for ourselves.  Begin with the U.S. Bishops' document linked above and Bp. Malesic's Letter. Then you may want to read the reflections, linked below, which lead to two different decisions. Each is by a  Catholic lay leader trying to be authentic to the Church's teaching on these complicated issues. Please read both. Beware of simply reading what affirms your opinions. Allow yourself to be challenged. Feel the discomfort as you think and pray your way to a decision, and vote your conscience.

"Why I'm voting for Biden, not Trump." by John Carr, co-author of Bishops' first document on Catholics and voting

"Why I can't vote for Joe Biden: A response to John Carr"
by Jayd Henricks, former executive director of government relations at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
