Voting for the mid-term elections in Iowa begins Oct. 14 and continues through Election Day, Nov. 3. As the U.S. bishops’ document, “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship,” says: “The Church’s obligation to participate in shaping the moral character of society is a requirement of our faith. It is a basic part of the mission we have received from Jesus Christ, who offers a vision of life revealed to us in Sacred Scripture and Tradition.”
The Iowa Catholic Conference is rolling out short videos from the Iowa bishops on “faithful citizenship.” Watch for them on our Facebook, Instagram and YouTube channels.
The ICC also offers a flyer in English and Spanish or French to help in your discernment about how to participate in the political process.
