St Philip Neri Peace & Justice Commission
Faithful Citizenship & Voter Registration

A Call to Faithful Citizenship.

Every four years since 1976, the Administrative Committee of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statement to communicate the Church's teaching that every Catholic is called to an active and faith-filled citizenship.

The Peace & Justice Commission at St. Philip Neri has prepared a Resource Guide (PDF document, 51kb) summarizing the Bishop's Letter.

The Commission has also embarked on a Voter Registration Drive. Voter Registration Cards, along with an easy to follow "checklist" and frequently asked questions, are available in the Church foyer and in all of the meeting rooms in the Paulist Center. To learn how to register to vote in Oregon, visit http://www.oregonvotes.org/.
