part 1: Voters Guide for Serious Catholics - from Catholic
Answers
We thank You for the privilege of being able to organize ourselves politically and of knowing that political loyalty does not mean disloyalty to You [unless the political items are in direct contradiction to Your law]. We thank You for Your law, which our Founding Fathers acknowledged and recognized as higher than any human law. We thank You for the opportunity that this election year puts before us, to exercise our solemn duty not only to vote, but to influence countless others to vote, and to vote correctly [for laws in accordance with Your laws, and for elected officials who will promote laws in accordance with Your laws]. Lord, we pray that Your people may be awakened. Let them realize that while politics is not their salvation, their response to You requires that they be politically active. Awaken Your people to know that they are not called to be a sect fleeing the world, but rather a community of faith renewing the world. Awaken them that the same hands lifted up to You in prayer are the hands that pull the lever [or mark the box on the voter sheet]; that the same eyes that read Your Word are the eyes that read the names on the ballot, and that they do not cease to be Christians when they enter the voting booth. Awaken your people to a commitment to justice to the sanctity of marriage and the family, to the dignity of each individual human life, and to the truth that human rights begin when human lives begin, and not one moment later. Lord, we rejoice today that we are citizens of your kingdom. May that make us all the more committed to being faithful citizens on earth. We ask this through Jesus Christ, [Your only Son,[ Our Lord, [Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, forever and ever]. Amen. A prayer written by Fr. Frank Pavone, Priests for Life [Annotations added by the web resource for this web site]. |

sanctity of marriage as God created one man
and one woman to be partners in 'going forth and multiplying and filling the
earth for the glory of God, and for candidates who will be truthful,
courageous, and loyal to God first and then to family and to country.
