Respect for Dignity, Foundational to Everything
This is Memindia 2 of 8 in the Social Justice Pack 1!
This breakout hit for the Black Eyed Peas combines rap and singing into a powerful call for love and truth by pointing to the many ways we violate love and respect.
In understanding Catholic Social Justice Teaching, everything starts from the point of human dignity: the value, worth, and divine image that we all carry. Only when that’s respected can all the other needs be addressed.
Faith Topics:
- Social Justice Principle #1
- Respect for Life & Dignity
- Everyone is Neighbor
Prayer:
- Guided Meditation
- Respect Reflection
Activity:
- Letter Writing
- Letter to the Disrespected

Party in the USA? Try Catholic Mass: party on whole planet!
In this incredibly catchy and sweet tune, Miley Cyrus describes the anxiety of arriving in Los Angeles for the first time being calmed by hearing and dancing to familiar music. The national nature of popular music helps her feel connected, even away from home.
We as Catholics have something even more powerful than music that connects us to each other, not just in the USA but everywhere on the planet: the ritual of the Mass. And contrary to popular perception (and perhaps practice!) it’s supposed to be a party too!
Faith Topics:
- The Mass:
- Comfort in Familiarity
- Global in Reach
Prayer:
- Traditional Recitation
- Eucharistic Prayer I (The Roman Canon)

You say you love God. Can you walk the walk or only talk the talk?
In this hit single, Iyaz sings of a man who changes for the Shawty (really attractive girl) he loves. Since he can’t get her out of his head (like his iPod stuck on replay), he finds himself doing things he’s never done: like cooking in the kitchen for her.
If we say we love God, we should be more like the guy in the song: changing our ways, doing new things to please God. We’re called to ‘be Jesus’ to the world; that means answering the call to conversion and holiness – walking the walking of loving God.
Faith Topics:
- Being Jesus
- Call to Conversion
- Striving for Holiness
Prayer:
- Scriptural Meditation
- Walking the Walk
Activity:
- Game
- Truth or Dare: Church Edition

Who do you belong to?
This Jason Mraz song rhapsodizes about surrendering to the love of your life. Perhaps we could apply that to more than romantic love?
What does it mean to take seriously the idea that you love God above all else, that you tell God “I’m yours”?
Faith Topics:
- surrender
- God’s love
- ultimate trust
Prayer:
- Original Recitation
- The I’m Yours Prayer
