OUR MISSION
As lay people, we “seek the kingdom of God by engaging in temporal affairs and by ordering them according to the plan of God… [working] for the sanctification of the world from within as a leaven… [making] Christ known to others, especially by the testimony of a life resplendent in faith, hope and charity” (Lumen gentium 31). The Lumen Gentium Forum exists to empower Catholic lay professionals living this calling in their careers. We do this by offering them intensive education in Catholic social teaching and its practical application for their professional vocations, as well as the telos (ultimate aim) of their institutions: the common good and the human dignity of all. Through this method, we support the critical mission of “enriching and permeating society itself with the Gospel” (Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church).
