Catholic social teaching is an essential element of our faith. Its roots can be found in the Hebrew prophets who announced God's special love for the poor and called God's people to a covenant of love and justice. It is a teaching founded on the life and words of Jesus Christ.

Below you will find various links to Vatican, Diocesan, and other Catholic organizations seeking to help us understand our call to live as Jesus did.

"The Church that celebrates the Eucharist is also to be capable of changing the unjust structures of this world into new social forces, into economic systems where the sense of communion rather than profit prevails."
-Venerable François-Xavier Nguyên Cardinal Van Thuán 
(1928-2002)
