YEAR OF MERCY PRAYER
Lord Jesus Christ,
you have taught us to be merciful
like the heavenly Father
and have told us that whoever sees you sees Him.
Let the Church be your visible face in the world.
Send your spirit so that the Jubilee of Mercy
may be a year of grace from the Lord,
and your Church, with renewed enthusiasm,
bring good news to the poor,
proclaim liberty to captives and the oppressed,
and restore sight to the blind.
We ask this through
the intercession of Mary,
Mother of Mercy,
you who live and reign with the Father
and the Holy Spirit
forever and ever.
Amen.
Adapted from the prayer penned by Pope Francis.
ORACION DEL AÑO DE JUBILEO DE LA
MISERICORDIA
Señor Jesucristo,
tú nos has enseñado a ser misericordiosos
como el Padre del cielo,
y nos has dicho que quien te ve,
lo ve también a Él.
Haz que, en el mundo, la Iglesia sea el rostro visible de Ti.
Manda tu Espíritu para que el Jubileo de la
Misericordia
sea un año de gracia del Señor
y tu Iglesia pueda, con renovado entusiasmo,
llevar la Buena Nueva a los pobres,
proclamar la libertad a los prisioneros y
oprimidos
y restituir la vista a los ciegos.
Te lo pedimos por la
intercesión de María,
Madre de la Misericordia,
a ti que vives y reinas con el Padre
y el Espíritu Santo
por los siglos de los siglos.
Amén.
Adaptada de la oración escrita por el Papa Francisco.

Statement on Political Responsibility
by Cardinal Dolan and the Catholic Bishops of New York State
The good of a democratic republic like ours depends on the participation of its citizens. This may
seem obvious but it needs to be insisted upon in today’s American society. The most fundamental
action of a good citizen is to vote. All other activities in the political sphere depend on the exercise of
this most fundamental right – which is equally a solemn responsibility. Regrettably, in our country today
an alarming percentage of citizens do not exercise this right. In New York State, on average over the
past four years, only 40% of eligible voters carried out their civic duty.
As the Catholic Bishops of New York State, we urge every eligible adult Catholic, without exception, to be sure that he or she is registered to vote and that all EXERCISE THEIR SOLEMN REPONSIBILITY
OF VOTING in this year’s elections.
If you are not registered to vote, or not sure you are registered, please go to the website
www.elections.ny.gov or call 1-800-FOR-VOTE. You may also go to our own New York State
Catholic Conference website at www.nyscatholic.org and select “Register to Vote.”
We thank you for doing that. Now we want to invite you to prepare to vote by becoming familiar with both the candidates and the issues. Just voting for a name you recognize or a party you belong
to does not fulfill your responsibility to build up a good society where human dignity, personal freedom, care for one another – especially the vulnerable – and the common good prevail as values which
should be cherished in our democracy.
Sadly, determining who to vote for is not always easy. Pressure groups, especially the loudest
ones, seek to shout down anyone who disagrees with them. Calm and thoughtful responses to issues
are often drowned out. That makes the challenge to choose good candidates and support good programs even more difficult than in the past. But it makes these decisions even more important. We do
have resources to help you.
One trustworthy resource is the booklet published this year by the United States Conference of
Catholic Bishops, Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship. To locate this resource, go to
www.usccb.org, click on issues and actions and select faithful citizenship. Based on four of the principles
of Catholic Social Teaching – human dignity, subsidiarity, solidarity and the common good – this document will help you evaluate the candidates and the programs they support on the basis of our shared
Catholic vision of the good society. Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship can also help you in
supporting candidates who are Pro-Life, pro-family and supportive of those policies that promote the
common good of our society.
If we want to have a good, healthy and virtuous society, we ourselves need to be good citizens,
dedicated to the truth and promoters of the common good. We can contribute significantly to a positive political process and reverse the negative spiral of today’s politics. But that means we must all be
one in promoting human life and dignity; families that care for the vulnerable of any age or condition;
and freedom and security for all our fellow citizens, as well as for all men and women every nation
throughout the world.
March 16, 2016
Declaración sobre la responsabilidad política
por el Cardenal Dolan y los Obispos del Estado de Nueva York
El bien de una república democrática como la nuestra depende de la participación de sus ciudadanos.
Esto puede parecer obvio, pero necesita ser insistido en la sociedad Americana de hoy. La acción más fundamental de un buen ciudadano es votar. Todas las demás actividades en la esfera política dependen del ejercicio de este derecho más fundamental - que es igualmente una responsabilidad solemne. Lamentablemente, en
nuestro país hoy en día un porcentaje alarmante de ciudadanos no ejercen este derecho. En el estado de Nueva York, el promedio en los últimos cuatro años, sólo el 40% de los votantes elegibles llevó a cabo su deber
cívico.
Como los Obispos del Estado de Nueva York, instamos a todos los adultos elegibles Católicos, sin
excepción, se aseguren que él o ella esté registrado para votar y que todos EJERZAN SU RESPONSABILIDAD SOLEMNE DE VOTAR en las elecciones de este año.
Si no está registrado para votar, o no está seguro de que está registrado, por favor vaya a la página web www.elections.ny.gov o llame al 1-800-FOR-VOTE. También puede ir a nuestra propia página web Conferencia Católica del Estado de Nueva York en www.nyscatholic.org y seleccione
"Registrarse para votar."
Le damos las gracias por hacer eso. Ahora queremos invitarle a prepararse para votar al familiarizarse
tanto con los candidatos y los temas. Sólo votar por un nombre que reconoce o un partido al que pertenece no
cumple con su responsabilidad de construir una buena sociedad en la que la dignidad humana, la libertad personal, el cuidado de unos a otros - especialmente los vulnerables - y el bien común prevalezca como valores
que deben ser apreciados en nuestra democracia.
Tristemente, la determinación por quién votar, no siempre es fácil. Los grupos de presión, especialmente los más fuertes, tratan de callar a cualquier persona que no está de acuerdo con ellos. Respuestas tranquilas y reflexivas a los problemas a menudo se ahogan. Eso hace que el desafío de elegir buenos candidatos
y apoyar los buenos programas incluso son más difícil que en el pasado. Pero ello hace que estas decisiones
sean aún más importantes. Tenemos recursos para ayudarle.
Un recurso confiable es el folleto publicado este año por la Conferencia Estadounidense de Obispos
Católicos, Formando Conciencia para ser Ciudadanos Fieles. Para localizar este recurso, vaya a
www.usccb.org, haga clic en temas y acciones y seleccione la ciudadanía leal. Basada en los cuatro principios de la Doctrina Social Católica - la dignidad humana, la subsidiariedad, la solidaridad y el bien común este documento le ayudará a evaluar a los candidatos y a los programas que apoyan sobre la base de nuestra
visión Católica compartida de la buena sociedad. Formando Conciencia para ser Ciudadanos Fieles también
le puede ayudar en el apoyo a los candidatos que son Pro-Vida, pro-familia y apoyan estas políticas que promueven el bien común de nuestra sociedad.
Si queremos tener una sociedad buena, sana y virtuosa, nosotros mismos debemos ser buenos ciudadanos, dedicados a la verdad y promotores del bien común. Nosotros podemos contribuir significativamente
a un proceso político positivo y revertir el espiral negativo de la política de hoy en día. Pero eso significa que
todos debemos ser uno en la promoción de la vida humana y la dignidad; familias que cuidan a los más vulnerables de cualquier edad o condición; y la libertad y la seguridad de todos nuestros ciudadanos, así como
para todos los hombres y mujeres de todas las naciones en todo el mundo.
