"If you have a question about Catholic teaching, Faith Facts provide a clear, accurate, and understandable explanation of what it is we believe as Catholics." --Archbishop Charles J. Chaput

Faith Facts provide concise, complete, and easy-to-read answers to specific questions about the Catholic faith. They explain what the Church teaches on important issues of faith, morals, and discipline. Faith Facts also explain the reasons behind these teachings--reasons that are found in Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the documents of the Magisterium. If you have a question about what the Church really teaches, chances are there's a Faith Fact that can give you the answer you're looking for.

UPDATED LAY WITNESS PROTOCOL: CUF has updated its "Lay Witness Protocol." Please read this document for guidance on using Faith Facts.

From Our Founder

Catholics United for the Faith has offered assistance to the Catholic bishops in the United States in their great work of furthering the all-important renewal which the Documents of the Council call for and which Pope Paul VI described as an inner, personal, moral renewal. This purpose, which is first in importance, and which is a prerequisite for the others, means that we exist in order to respond publicly and together to what Vatican II called the universal call to holiness. This spiritual renewal must be realized by the response of large numbers of the laity to the call to perfection, by an awakening to the depth and totality of Christ’s call; it means a real conversion into that leaven, that salt, that light which Christ asks us to be.
