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. Help Now >

Shop St. Moses the Ethopian
A man known for his strength and ferocity, St. Moses was an Abyssinian slave and was released because of his nature. The leader of a gang of thieves, Moses sought refuge at Sketis, where he was converted to Christianity. There he became known for his supernatural gifts, and his wisdom is included in the sayings of the Desert Fathers. Theophilus of Alexandria ordained him to the priesthood. When Bedouins attacked Moses c. 395/400, he offered no resistance; he was buried at Dair al-Baramus, the Monastery of the Romans, in the Valley of Natron. His relics are now in the Church of Al Adra (the Virgin).
