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. 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!!!

  1. Dear Lord, please keep my son, CJ, protected from the evil forces that have been put into play to ruin his life. Remove the forces, the entities, and the thoughts that have been engaged in evil plots to ruin his life. Blessed Mother, if you keep your mantle around him, I know, it will keep him protected and safe. St. Michael the Archangel, he is your charge. You are his patron saint. He chose you to guide and protect him, please keep him by your side and use your sword to cut away all the evil that threatens to ruin him. In our Lord's Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!
    Please, Nine Choir of Angels, wrap your wings around CJ and shield him from all harm. Amen!!!
    Please Lord, help my son, CJ. Bring him peace, love, and mercy. Help him overcome the negativity in his office. Restore his hope and trust in You! Renew his heart, soften it and heal the hurt. Bring him an epiphany that will bring him to his knees before You. Help him to forgive all those who have hurt him. And, Lord, please, he especially needs a new job. Please grant that he may find a job where he is treated with respect, where there is no negativity or ill feelings. He comes home so depressed. Please ignite his passion for school, that he persevere In pursuit of success. Please replace his desire for the military with a desire for a career in law enforcement. Please bring him a girlfriend that will mirror his same values and beliefs, that they may share their faith to the fulfillment of their purpose, for Your Glory, Lord!!! Please lift him up, Lord. In Your Precious and Holy Name! Amen!!!
    Please Lord, help CJ sever his ties with Diana. She is mentally unstable and has threatened him harm. Please Lord, unmask his eyes so he can see her for what she really is.

In The Son's, Our Lord's, Precious and Holy Name. 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. 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!!!
    Dear Lord, I ask a special favor for my son, CJ. Please bring him a girlfriend that will share the same beliefs, values, morals, and support. That she be godly and spiritual. I thank you, Lord, for distancing Diana from his life. His heart is good. He too, because of friends that have abandoned him or moved on to other lives, needs more friends; friends that will lift him up and bring him love and companionship. He needs new friends, Lord. Please bring them into his life. Bring him a good girlfriend, compatible to him in every way that counts. Your Mother's mantle of love and mercy surround him, Lord, and that by her intercession You will grant me and my son this prayer, as emanating for Your love for her. (Make this prayer your own, Blessed Mother that Our Lord, your Son, will grant it. Amen!). I pray in Your Precious and Holy Name, Lord. Amen!!!

  2. 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 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-important 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. Bless and keep my son in Your Adorable Arms, cradle him always in that love that never ends.

  6. In 2017 lost my company to betrayal by best friend, his wife and brother; lost full-time job following; then wife left me. Bearing the continuous slings and arrows of a marriage to an unfaithful narcissist, while maintaining oversight of 6 beautiful children, despite financial loss and failing health ... what a year. On the plus side, I am writing a Podcast detailing a fully Catholic remedy to the mental illness epidemic and enjoy a sense of peace, however fatigued, throughout it all. My prayer is for renewed faith and strength, please. All I have ever wanted was to love my family, teach them to love Jesus and the Church, and serve the Lord. Not sure how much more I can carry.

    Jinu, 12/11/2017
  3. I need help. I so desperately need to move. I’m tired of living in fear, of living here. I have coped with abuse for so many years. I spend most of my days crying and wishing my life was over. This isn’t living. I’m merely existing. Emotionally I died years ago. Physically I’ve only got a few years left since I’m already old. I had hoped someone in heaven would have mercy on me and release me from this hell. That God would finally say ‘okay, you’ve been through enough. i’ll let you have some happiness before you die.’ I can’t think of a time in my life where I was truly happy and not living in fear. Along with hiding and being afraid comes loneliness. Since I don’t have any friends or family nearby I won’t get a funeral when I die. It doesn’t really matter since no one will cry for me. If I had to describe my life in a word it would be ‘lonely’. Maybe I deserve this hell: clearly no one lves me or cares. I just wish I knew why I was born. Was I really put here only to be abused, laughed at, insulted and threatened? I’ve never been loved. Even my family repeatedly told me how worthless I was and how everything was fine until I was born. Sometimes I hope and pray things will get better but after so many years of problems I no longer have it in me to hold on. Please pray that God will make a decision to either end my misery or end my life now because I can’t keep going on like this. I’m tired and I’m broken. It’s all too much for me now.

    C so alone, 12/11/2017
