Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.Help Now >

Today is the last Sunday before Christmas! We light the fourth and final candle on our Advent wreath today. Are you excited for the coming of the Lord?
Christ's arrival means we will be rescued to enjoy eternal life with God. At Mass, we celebrate the Resurrection of Christ, and the new life He brings to all.
For reflection, let us consider if we are as excited for the celebration of Our Lord's birth as we are for the holiday that is to come.
Let us pray:
O King of all nations and keystone of the Church:come and save man, whom you formed from the dust!
