“Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need; the remainder is needed by others.”
– St. Augustine

Teaching
" While the common good embraces all, those who are weak, vulnerable, and most in need deserve preferential concern. A basic moral test for our society is how we treat the most vulnerable in our midst…This preferential option for the poor and vulnerable includes all who are marginalized in our nation and beyond – unborn children, persons with disabilities, the elderly and terminally ill, and victims of injustice or oppression." Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship 2007, 50.
