I love being a Catholic girl

I’m 16f and these are just some thoughts I wanted to talk about and give my viewpoint about. I see people call the Catholic Church misogynistic and sexist a lot. I think there’s definitely some Catholics who contribute to the perception of this especially online where people try…

Are there any prayers to St Francis for pets who have died?

My son and I were in the room when we had to put our 12 year old black lab to sleep yesterday and we're both taking it pretty hard. He asked me about if pets go to heaven, and I told him I think so because they're part of God's creation and they make us happy on Earth so I think…

Why don't we talk more about a husband's grave spiritual accountability to his family's souls?

Jesus fasted 40 days and 40 nights.

Just a quick question, I can’t seem to find if this was a water fast or a dry fast. Obviously for any mere human 40 days without water is impossible, but it never mentions water to the best of my knowledge.

I want to convert

Exam Success - St Joseph of Cupertino

I just want to thank God and St Joseph of Cupertino. I promised I’d make his name known if he prayed for me and God answered my prayer to pass my medical school exam. I had no faith and genuinely believed I failed but then prayed the novena prayer to St Joseph and other saints.…

AI “art” in my parish bulletin

So, my parish uses AI “art” extensively for the church bulletin. While I know it can be said that my issue with this is a matter of personal taste, I would assume that mostly everybody on here would agree with me that art made by humans depicting Christ, Mary, and the saints (of…
