Catechism of the Catholic Church

“It is not the role of the Pastors of the Church to intervene directly in the political structuring and organization of social life.

PRAYER OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA

Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."
