Little girl looking Millions of people turn to Catholic Online for prayers, Daily Readings, saints, Catholic education and answers about their Faith. Most will never donate. But if Catholic Online has given you more than $5 worth of value this year, we're asking you to do something very simple: Give $5 today.

Your Catholic Voice Foundation also supports Catholic Online School, which has served 2.2 million student enrollments in 193 countries. We don't believe a family's ability to pay should determine whether a child can receive a Catholic education. If we've given you something of value, please give something back.

Two African martyrs praised by St. Cyprian and St. Augustine. Taken prisoners, Castus and Emilius denied Christ under torture and were released. They were arrested a second time and now, resolved to be loyal to the faith, they refused to abjure Christianity. They were burned to death.
