Themes from Catholic Social Teaching

"The Church's social teaching is a rich treasure of wisdom about building a just society and living lives of holiness amidst the callings of modern society. Modern Catholic social teaching has been articulated through a tradition of papal, conciliar, and episcopal documents."
Please see the USCCB document titled "Themes from Catholic Social Teaching".
