For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper
you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
—Jeremiah 29:11—
Jesus commanded His faithful to spread His good news around the world. As Catholics and fellow Christians today, that must include taking a leadership role in politics and public policy. We cannot abandon the important work done here to the secular world.
We would not let a thief into our home, and yet we stand by as candidates are elected who work against the principles we hold dear. We would not knowingly place our children in a dangerous situation, and yet we stand by as our public school system is failing our students and indoctrinating them with radical ideology.
The Catholic Church has been a force for good and innovation worldwide for millennia. People of faith created our K-12 and higher education systems, built our hospitals, established charitable foundations, and supported apostolate-thought leaders as well as sacred architecture, art and music. We cannot abandon that spirit of innovation now.
Catholics, and all our brothers and sisters in Christ, are called to serve, to use their faith, skills and talents to be a positive force in their communities.
Katalyst actively seeks faith-principled Catholics and other like-minded Christians to collaborate and build partnerships to improve the social, economic, and educational quality of the communities where they live, work, play and pray. Our Christian faith values of life, family and freedom applied to public policy and service will build thriving, prosperous communities.
