Join Eva Andrade, President & CEO of Hawaiʻi Family Forum and Executive Director of the Hawaiʻi State Catholic Conference, for a practical and encouraging presentation on what it means to live out our faith as faithful citizens.

Grounded in Sacred Scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the Church’s rich tradition of social teaching, this presentation will explore how Catholics can form their consciences, engage today’s important issues with wisdom and charity, and participate confidently in the public square.

Whether you are a first-time voter or have been engaged in civic life for years, you will leave with a deeper understanding of the Church’s call to faithful citizenship and practical tools for evaluating candidates and public policy through an authentically Catholic lens.

Topics include:

• Basics for a well-formed Catholic conscience
• Overview of the Principles of Catholic Social Teaching
• The dignity of the human person and the common good
• Prudence in evaluating candidates and public policy
• The role of faithful citizenship in today’s culture
• Practical resources for informed voting

All are welcome. Whether you are deeply involved in public life or simply seeking to better understand the Church’s teaching, this presentation will equip and encourage you to faithfully live your Catholic faith in every aspect of life—including the voting booth.
