Church Documents
Papal encyclicals are pastoral church documents written by popes to the Catholic clergy and/or laity. Reading encyclical letters can help guide you on Church teachings and doctrine. Encyclicals have addressed many topics including human dignity, poverty, forgiveness, labor, marriage, and other issues of concern. While many papal writings are available online, hard copies and books provide easy reading.
