Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship

FORMING CONSCIENCES FOR FAITHFUL CITIZENSHIP

To assist voters, the Diocese of Portland has launched a special Faithful Citizenship resource section to assist visitors in the exercise of their rights and duties as participants in our democracy.

The page (https://portlanddiocese.org/forming-consciences-faithful-citizenship) includes a variety of helpful information, including Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship in English and Spanish. Prepared by the Catholic bishops of the United States, the teaching document aims to help Catholics understand their political responsibility, contribute to civil and respectful public dialogue, and shape political choices in light of Catholic teaching.
