We ask you, urgently: don't scroll past this

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.

St. Francis of Assisi is the patron saint of animals, and he often preached sermons to animals. On his feast day, we take a moment to remember all of our furry little friends. Animals come in all shapes and sizes, and each and every one has an important place in God's creation.

We praise all creatures as brothers and sisters under God.
