Conversion Story
This is a really amazing story! One Reddit (social news medium) user recently shared his story about inviting a satanist to Mass. As a result, the satanist converted to Catholicism. What a miracle! The user explained that he evangelized to the satanist after meeting him in class. The satanist then asked him about the Catechism, so the Reddit user began reading it to him. The satanist then became “quite serious about it” and asked “deep questions” about “the truth of Mother Church.”

Veterans Day
From the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops: LET US PRAY for our brothers and sisters as they go forth with courage and determination to face the forces of violence, weapons of destruction, and hearts filled with hate.

Star of the Sea
Did you know that the Blessed Virgin Mary embarked on a sea voyage in her lifetime? Though this information does not come to us by way of Scriptures, it reaches us through a trustworthy private revelation, which the Church approved and leaves to our discretion to believe.
