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.Help Now >
It's good to be the Pope! Pope Francis gets a Lamborghini
FREE Catholic Classes
Pope Francis now has a nice car than you, in the form of a limited edition Lamborghini Huracan. It's a beautiful work of art. Even more beautiful is the Holy Father's plan for the car.
The car will be auctioned and the proceeds donated to help resettlement of Christians on the Nineveh Plain.

LOS ANGELES, CA (California Network) - Pope Francis is the proud owner of a Lamborghini Huracan. The car was built as a special limited edition for him. The car normally costs about $200,000 USD. The speedy vehicle was donated to the Pope by the manufacturer.
The sleek car sits low to the ground and is painted glossy white with gold trim. Pope Francis autographed the hood with a special marking pen.
While it would be fantastic to see Pope Francis behind the wheel, even just once, the Holy Father has a plan for the car. He has already commissioned the Sotheby's auction house to sell the car at auction. The proceeds will go to Aid to the Church in Need.The charity has thanked the Pope for his pledged donation and says they plan to use the money to rebuild Christian settlements on the Nineveh plain.
The charity is taking the lead in resettling the Christians that remain following the depredations of ISIS, and their attempt to commit Christian genocide in an area that has been occupied by Christians since the time of Christ.
A representative for Aid to the Church in Need said the gift of the car is an example of how large corporations can also help the poor, even if they do not work directly with those in need.
