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.

Could you all please pray for both my mental health and for reconciliation and restoration of the friendship with my friend?

  8. Trust me I know I have fallen short of mercy because of what I was what I have become.One of the gravest mistake was loving a man who is not a believer and sticking by his side throughout though we have not been married but yes a living in was nothing small for me.Now when he has finished everything with me and me trying all possible way religious methods for the past one year.I have lost all hopes.I have closed my eyes tight because all is dark.I know may be he is the wrong choice n sticking by him is foolishness but it's a choice I have already made and imagining that emptiness is painful God.Moreover he and his parents heartless behaviour is that it.Is their no forgiveness for my repentance no fruits for my labour.I have failed God I have failed in life.

    Terry, 1/22/2017
  13. Please pray for me to not lose my faith because of what I am experiencing all around me God. And please ask God to send me wisdom and help me to understand how the Eucharist is the true body and blood of Christ (and so should enrich us with His Love) when so many Catholics (especially nuns) who go to Mass and receive the Eucharist are such liars, hypocrites and just downright disrespectful of others in their personal lives. Also, please pray for the nuns who are such poor examples of christianity that they are turning people away from the Catholic faith. I have been a loyal Catholic all my life (I'm 68), and it's really disconcerting to me to be wondering if Christ is truly present in the Eucharist, given my past and present experiences with catholics who seem to be "catholic" in name only. Please pray for help for me, and help for all those affected by lying, disrespectful clergy and lay persons. I ask this in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

    Thank you and God bless you.

  1. Please keep my family and I in prayer. Sometimes I feel like I'm not doing enough in my prayer life. I often feel like I'm not praying hard enough or consistent enough on certain areas where I need to see God intervene. I often think maybe that's why my prayers have not been answered. Today I asked that you pray with me to have a stronger prayer life and faith. I asked that you pray that God will remove the anxiety, constant worrying and stress.Today, I also ask that you join me in prayer for the following:
    1. My husband - He is such a good man and strong positive influence on this family. His health. his job, his finances, and his faith walk.
    2. My son - knowledge, wisdom, and God's purpose for his life, school, friendships.
    3. Our new house - We are in the process of building a house. Smooth building process, continue favor with the builders and lenders and for our new house to no longer be a house but a home whose foundation is built on God's love and protection.
    4. Closing costs - We had to use our money for closing costs and now we need $6000 by June 2. I pray and worry about this the most. I just don't see a way. No money for closing costs no house.
    5. Increase financially
