LIFE AND DIGNITY OF THE HUMAN PERSON

The first Catholic Social Teaching teaches us to honor and respect everyone's life that has been given to them. Unfortunately, many lives are often lost due to abortion, murder, war, and euthanasia. As Catholics, it is important to prevent the loss of lives around the world due to these horrible things.
"Things have a price and can be for sale, but people have a dignity that is priceless and worth far more than things." -Pope Francis

CALL TO FAMILY, COMMUNITY, AND PARTICIPATION
This means that we are not only sacred, but also social. We should always participate in our community and show love to the others around us. We should strive to make our society a better place together.
"I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things." - Saint Teresa of Calcutta

RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
This teaching means that we as people have human rights. These include freedom of speech, religion, and voting. However, we also have responsibilities such as incorporating God into our daily lives and participating in our community through service work.
"I think both freedom of religion and freedom of expression are both fundamental human rights, everyone has not only the freedom and the right but the obligation to say what Pope Francis thinks for the common good... we have the right to have this freedom openly without offending." - Pope Francis

OPTION FOR THE POOR AND VULNERABLE
As Catholics, it is very important to make sure we serve in our community, church, or world someway. There are many people in our community that are less fortunate than us. Even though they may not have as much as we do, they still have dignity.
"It's not about how much we give, but how much love we put into giving." -Saint Teresa of Calcutta

THE DIGNITY OF WORK AND THE RIGHTS OF WORKERS
This teaching teaches us to respect all workers, no matter their status. God would never want us to look down upon a worker just because they aren't the CEO of the company they work for. We wouldn't be able to have many things if it weren't for people that work at restaurants, and grocery stores even though they often get paid minimum wage.
"Woe to him who treats his workers unjustly." Jeremiah 22:13

SOLIDARITY
Solidarity is the unity we Catholics share amongst each other through Christ. Our race, gender, economic status, or sexuality should never make one of us better than the other. We are all brothers and sisters to each other, as well as children of God. The gospel calls us all to be peacemakers so our world will be filled with only positive things.
"Let us learn solidarity. Without solidarity, our faith is dead." -Pope Francis

CARE FOR GOD'S CREATIONS

Caring for god's creations means that we must always be courteous of our environment and the things living around us. Everything around us has been created by God. If we go against God's creation, we are going against God. It is important to do things to help keep our world God intended to and we can do this by recycling and keeping gardens in good condition.
"As stewards of God's creation, we are called to make the earth a beautiful gardening for the human family." -Pope Francis
