Economic Life

As per Chapter 7 of the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church,



  • “Through the gift of his Spirit & the conversion of hearts, he [Jesus] comes to establish the 'Kingdom of God', so that a new manner of social life is made possible, in justice, brotherhood, solidarity & sharing. The Kingdom inaugurated by Christ perfects the original goodness of the created order & of human activity, which were compromised by sin. Freed from evil & being placed once more in communion with God, man is able to continue the work of Jesus, with the help of his Spirit....

    "economic activity is to be considered and undertaken as a grateful response to the vocation which God holds out for each person....Economic activity and material progress must be placed at the service of man and society....Goods, even when legitimately owned, always have a universal destination....

    “The Church's social doctrine insists on the need for business owners & management to strive to structure work in such a way so as to promote the family, especially mothers, in the fulfilment of their duties"
