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.

  1. This is a very serious prayer request for someone very dear to me. His name is Justin. He has something evil attached inside of him, and has had for a while now. I've seen it in form of a skull laughing at me and it's very strong. It's been destroying a good man and turning him into a mean, selfish hostile person. He wasn't always that way. 2 times I have prayed (without his prior knowledge) very hard for the Lord to remove the evil from me, from our home and from him. Both times with a day or two something horrible would happen and he would pack up and leave. The 2nd time being Easter weekend. I prayed hard and in honor of Jesus's sacrifice, ask him to rid him and our home from the Evil that was causing the hostility. The next day, Easter, I was sitting on the couch with him and he started blaring heavy metal music on his phone that I can only equate to a demon possessed person roaring and screaming. I was kinda taken aback as this was out of the normal. I find later he had been watching and downloading music on my computer full of evil mess just like that. I went to return his Easter gift he was ungrateful for and came back to find him packing and moving out again. 2 times I've tried to cast it out this year, 2 times he has up and left. The evil is taking the weak vessel with it. If anyone, even strangers in passing speaks or talks about Christians or God, he gets irate. This isn't normal because for 5 years he has known my views and I don't push them on him. He wasn't raised to believe and so part of it isn't his fault. What is in him is destroying him. He said a couple weeks ago he doesn't believe in the devil. He has no one else but me and my folks to pray for him. Please pray that the Lord come to him and show him he exists, show him real good and evil and make him believe. But most importantly, pray that Jesus removes the demons from within him. He has no one else to help him if we don't and he is too weak to do this on his own. Please help save him. In Jesus precious name I pray, under Father God's authority. Amen. Amen.

    Kristy, 4/20/2017
  2. Please pray for my son as he faces difficulties at work. Dear Lord, please let his job be safe. Our dear mother, Mary, guide & protect him; dear St Joseph watch over him & guide him. I ask this through Christ Our Lord. Amen

  3. I ask in Jesus name for my son Delano to be helped with his mental illness. He has bipolar and other mental illness. I ask in Jesus name for him to be touched by the Holy Spirit to be encouraged to take his medication. He refuses to take any medication he doesn't realize how ill he is. Please God help my son touch, his mind, body, soul and spirit. Soften his heart, and encourage him to take medicine. Thank you God, In Jesus name. Amen

  15. Dear Lord, Please receive my son, CJ, at the Foot of Your Cross. I place Your Blood that was spilled on the ground on my lips, that it may not go wasted but in stead purify my lips as my prayers float up to the Throne of Our Father. I thank you for the healing he received when he was released from the "stronghold" on his heart. Please continue the healing to full restoration of his hope and trust in You, and bring him to the fullness of Your Love. Please, Lord, he still has desires of joining the military. If it is not within Your Will for him, please remove these desires and replace them with Your Will on his life; that he may fulfill Your purpose for him. Lord, I am afraid. I do not want to see him go off to this futile war of evils. I place this prayer at the Foot of Your Cross, that it may be cleansed and purified before it reaches the Throne of Our Father; that the Father may return them renewed and restored. Please, Lord, bring CJ the desire to become an FBI BAU agent to fruition. Bring him the tools, resources, and perseverance to bring his desires to completion, if it is Your Will, Lord. Replace his desire for the military with his desire to serve in the FBI. Lord, if it is Your Will. I place CJ in Your merciful and loving arms. Bring him peace, joy, and prosperity. Help him to live a life dedicated to fulfillment of his purpose and commitment to his faith. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Blessed Mother, wrap him in your mantle and be with him always throughout his journey. Amen!!!

  1. 20April2017 9:19AM EST Enemy Tactic: I am not sure of the how but here's the gist--enemy puppets/temporarily possesses subject to ignore command to be polite/to not be rude in an instance of not saying thank you to person opening door, then puppets/temporarily possesses subject opening door to rudely rebuke subject who ignores command to be polite/to not be rude. Object is to make others believe Christians are stupid/ignorant for believing the Bible or that God exists and/or Christians are hypocritical/antiquated. Yahweh-ian response, aggressively embrace/hug other subject - say Words Yahweh gives such as "I'm sorry you have been hurt so badly. I'm sorry you're in so much pain" to express His Love. Do not let go of subject until Yahweh says. This should bring the human and/or Holy Spirit back into control of the vessel and subject becomes docile, repentant. Truly, Love NEVER fails... count the cost and distribute to the members of the Body. Amen.

  2. Please pray to Mother Mary and our Lord Jesus Christ for a miracle for Charlie Yates, an 8 month old boy in England with mitochondrial depletion syndrome.

The parents wanted to bring him to the US for treatment; the courts said no. Please pray for him that the love of God, Mary, Jesus will allow Charlie to live longer and in a state of grace. Please pray that he will be cured and will not suffer. Bless this little boy and his loving parents and friends. Pray for a miracle. Thank you.
