Little girl looking 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 >

Image of The Archbishop of Baltimore, the Most Reverend William E. Lori, is one of the Chairmen of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops Committee for Religious Liberty for good reason. He has been a heroic advocate for our first freedom, religious freedom, for many years. I have followed the courageous leadership of Bishop William Lori for many years, both as a constitutional lawyer, concerned for the issues which he addresses so well, and as a cleric, a Deacon of the Catholic Church. He is a faithful and inspiring shepherd of the Catholic Church who shows us all how to both explain and defend religious liberty.
