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.

  4. Father, I plead the Blood of Jesus for Jonathen's change and for his return to me. Let him and these strange women keeping him have no rest until he Faithfully returns to me. Help him overcome the spirit of alcoholism and drugs. Frustrate and cancel all people, occasions, and events that open him up to alcohol, drugs, and other women. Block every voice that calls and texts Jonathen out to meet these strange women. Let every such voice in the spirit and in the physical be dumb and call him no more.
    In Jesus Name I Pray, AMEN

  4. I lost everything I ever worked for because of my fiancé since December last year, some of which seem irreplaceable.
    She eventually left me and till now I've been unable to recover up to even 1% of it.
    I can't even make it to the pages of newspapers like I used to.
    I lost fame, money, respect, my house, my clients, my contacts and eventually her.
    I put everything on the line for her and now I have nothing.
    I sleep in friends' houses, borrow money, eat whatever any helper gives me.
    I've been praying for restoration not even vengeance but it seems God's not listening to me.
    I'm working hard day and night doing more than thrice the things I used to do before God blessed me and even pray more than before.
    I believe God can do it but it seems I need more prayers.
    Please, help me in prayers.

    Damilola, 12/21/2016
  5. Please pray for my son nicholas who is battling spiritual war far and severe anxiety.
