Little girl looking 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.

Let Us Pray

Together, let us pray for the needs of our brothers and sisters.
Please remember these intentions in your daily prayers.

  1. Dear Lord, I pray for the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. Please, Lord, allow him to run the country with honesty, integrity, and fairness. Help Congress surpass their agenda of opposing him for the sake of opposition and help them come together for the good of the country. Lord, please help him bring our country back to greatness. Help him overturn Obama's legacy of bad policy and legislation. Lord, our country needs a miracle. Bring the light of God into this new administration. May the Blessed Mother, wrap her mantle around everyone in Government, Congress, and the President's cabinet. Bring us peace, joy, and prosperity, In Your Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!Please Lord, put an end to the Anti-Trump movement (it's a movement solely motivated by hate, Lord) in this country which only serves to hurt the country and the things the President and his administration wish to accomplish!
    Dear Lord, please, help the Trump administration (his family) overcome the investigation into the Russian hacking... help what they have found amount to nothing that can distract and hinder the President's agenda. Please, Lord, allow him to govern wisely, honestly, and with integrity. Please let Congress unite in a just and honest governing of our country. Allow all the good our President has already done to come out and overshadow the minutia that seems to have overtaken what is really important. Please, Lord, for the sake of our country and it's restoration to greatness, help the President do his job well and without opposition. Amen!!!
    Thank you, Lord, that our trip was a success, with so many moments of grace and blessings. In Your Precious and Holy Name, Lord!!! Please continue to bless and grace our friendships that our hearts will always be united, strengthen our friendships, Lord! In Your Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!
    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 instead 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 pursue a career in law enforcement 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!!!

  3. Please, Lord, I ask that you please bring light and love to Congress. Help them come together for the countries sake. I don't think any of them really care. The President is trying and the hate and disrespect directed at him, by the media and the left is hindering what he wants to accomplish. Please lift the President, Lord, he gets so much ugliness, negativity, and evil, how can he overcome it. He can't we need to pray for him. Pray for Congress that they do the right thing, for the good of the country and not their self-imposed agenda. Don't let us lose the majority come this election period. Your Will be done, Lord. We need a miracle to bring our country back to greatness. There is so much division and evil, by people on all sides. Lift our country, Lord. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!

    Dear Lord, please, if it is Your Will that I should meet someone else to share my life, please, Lord, make him kind, caring, compassionate, loving, funny, and generous. May we share the same beliefs and values. If You choose to let me live out my life singly, please, give me the resources and energy to continue to live my life in service to you, Lord. I do get lonely sometimes, Lord, but then you know that, don't You? Blessed Mother, help me be a good mother to my son. Help me make his life with me a blessing, that will lift him up and not drag him down... until such time as the Lord sees fit to send him out on his own... In Your Precious and Holy Name, I pray, Lord. Amen!!!

    Dear Lord, if it is not Your Will for my son, CJ, to go into the military, please remove it from his heart. I'm so afraid, Lord. I know our soldiers really do a heroic and wonderful thing for our country and freedom, but I really don't want to see my son in this terrible war of evils. They all come back so wounded and broken. Please, Lord, remove it from his life, but I pray for Your Will to be done, as always. Bring him godly and supportive friends; friends that will lift him up rather than drag him down. Bless and keep my son in Your Adorable Arms, cradle him always in that love that never ends. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!

  6. I’ve been having a lot of trouble with anxiety lately. Over the past 5 years, there have been a lot of changes in my life - changes for the worse. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t like surprises anymore because so many of them have been unpleasant! In the past 5 years, I’ve lost a love relationship, lost two jobs, lost a pet, and worst of all, lost my mother to cancer.

    I’m beginning to be afraid of the future. My present job situation feels shaky. I just wonder, what’s in store for me in the future? I’m scared I will just lose more and more things. Sometimes I even wish I die soon, so I don’t have to go through any more loss and fear and pain.

  14. SPEAK OUT
    • Often too many times we hear God’s truth and we don’t do anything or say anything about it. Why?
    • Often too many times when we don’t speak out for God’s truth to our loved ones we are actually offending God by our inaction instead. Why?
    • Often too many times it seems easier to be quiet and state it’s none of my concern; let them do what they want. They aren’t hurting anyone when in fact they are spiritually hurting themselves and our society. Why?
    • Often too many times we want the easy road and we say nothing. Jesus didn’t ask us to take the easy road; He asked us to take the right road: His road.

    Pray you stand up for God’s truth with everyone that you meet: whether he/she is your loved one, your family member, your friend or even your religious leader. People have twisted or distorted God’s truth for their own conveniences. God’s truth needs to be heard. Speak out!


    Pray this prayer:
    Proclaim God’s Truth
    Holy Spirit, I pray that You show me Your truth.

    Holy Spirit, help me to see more clearly how I can bring others closer to You through the truth and not through what others want to hear.

    Holy Spirit, help me to see opportunities to respond courageously with love to ignorance, misunderstanding, and misspoken truth to Your Word.

    Holy Spirit, help me to act with strength and discretion in proclaiming Your good news: the truth spoken by Your Son our Lord.

    Holy Spirit, help me to not be afraid of speaking out when an opportunity presents itself to speak the truth even if it’s hard to do so.




    Mike, 1/6/2018
  15. Dear Lord,

I pray that job opportunity will come ringing down his door and bust through the walls and declare that it will be fruitful and amazing for our future. Please Lord I ask of you to provide it for him. He needs your touching hands now. Amen!

  1. I am from Sri Lanka and married a person from Australia through a marriage proposal advertised in the newspaper in 2016.I gave up my job in Sri Lanka and flew over to Aussie in June 2017 to live with my wife and her parents.

    My wife has a learning disability which was mentioned before marriage but did not mention of a head injury until we were married. Ever since I started living in Aussie, My wife's parents did not give us the privacy and were interfering in our affairs. My Mother in Law controls my wife in every situation. She has no respect for people and started calling me names which was dis respective and harassed me at times.

    I was very innocent where this marriage was concerned and my Mother in Law took advantage of each and every situation before and after the marriage.
    She and her husband wanted me to be a mere puppet and a handy man and not a husband to my wife.
    Therefore, I left Aussie in November 2017 and back in Sri Lanka and currently looking for suitable employment.

    I ask prayers for obtaining suitable employment and a peaceful separation from wife.
