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 Resources — essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. However, fewer than 2% of readers donate. If you donate just $5.00, the price of your coffee, Catholic Online Learning Resources can keep thriving.
