Election Novena - Labor & Economy
Economic decisions and institutions should be assessed according to whether they protect or undermine the dignity of the human person. Workers, owners, employers, and unions have a corresponding responsibility to work together to create decent jobs, build a more just economy, and advance the common good. Economic policy should promote the flourishing of all, not the interests of a few.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, you created man to work, glorifying you in our everyday labors. Help us to elect officials who recognize the dignity of work, and are committed to just economic policies. Amen.
Discernment Questions:
Where does the candidate stand on policies that foster economic participation and the creation of jobs that provide decent working conditions and just wages?
