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.

  12. My little daughter Joanna (4 years old) has been ill (off and on) since July 15th, 2016. She has had the viral fever thrice already, each time lasting for approximately 6 to 7 days. She has also had a very severe cough and cold for which she was put on anti-biotics.

    However on Sunday, the 11th of December, she started getting a strong pain in her stomach. We gave her all the medicines we could, but she was not getting much relief. We took her to the doctor on Monday and after examination the doctor asked us to get an ultrasonography done and a series of blood tests.

    We did it all and we got the reports yesterday. The sonography has shown that she has 3 to 4 lymph nodes up to the size of 12mm in the mesenteric area (stomach). We went back to the doctor who told us that right now we don’t need to worry so much as the normal range is up to 10mm. However we have to follow a very strict diet and keep a watch on her weight over the next 2 months. Since today the pain has subsided by the mercy of God. She is also suffering from constipation and gas but today she was able to pass some stool.

    I humbly request your prayers for the lymph nodes to return to normal size on its own, as soon as possible so that my baby girl does not have any more pain. Please pray for her health to improve and for to become strong and healthy and for this pain never to return. Please pray that all of this is nothing serious, instead just a little infection which can be treated by medication. Please pray that my baby JOANNA does not have to go for any surgery at all and there should be no need for any further investigation.

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PRAY that this has nothing to do with cancer or any other critical and terminal disease. Our baby is so small and fragile and I know there is NOTHING impossible for our LORD JESUS CHRIST.

    Please pray for her dear brother. In Jesus’ most holy and mighty name I pray. Amen.

  2. Dear Lord, thank you for the wonderful days and moments with F. There's something holding him back and we haven't spoken again about the official status which I long to have. His ex girlfriend is in the picture but its because she's helping him out with his business stuff. I've seen their correspondence and its really all about work but I can't help but feel jealous he spends a good deal of his time texting her or meeting up with her too. I don't mind her being around in his life but I would very much want us to have a status. I pray for a sign on how we can move things forward. I pray for F to come forth with whatever else is on his mind. He is isn't having an easy time either with all that's going on in his life. Please help him to go through it smoothly and for us to become official. Thanks for bringing him back into my life after what we have been though. I long to hear the words 'I love you' from him. He's all I have ever asked for in a partner and I'm willing to go through the ups and downs with him.

  12. Dec. 15, 2016 Peace be with you. This is the season of celebration, giving thanks, and thoughts of peace. We think of our children and pray for peace. Also in thought, prayers and blessing – remember all the children of the world, especially those who have never known peace and mercy. They are in want and need. They cry for the warmth of love and the silence of peace. Listen to Elie Wiesel and let “Peace be our gift to each other.”
