Hey, we’re Catholic and we’re proud of it! Sometimes just focusing on being single, dating, and relationships doesn’t cut it – so we made a place for everything that we write about being Catholic and loving it.
There is nothing quite like the pain of a breakup. In fact, a broken heart can sometimes feel as if it will never heal. While are many things you can do if you’re struggling with the pain of heartbreak, perhaps the best way to begin the healing process is with prayer. You can always bring […]
Looking at today’s society, it’s not hard to see that the virtue of chastity is under great assault in our world today. Even for those of us who have the best intentions to remain pure, staying the course can prove to be very difficult in the midst of the many temptations and pressures to give […]
The life of a single Catholic can be solitary and lonely in even the best of times. Let’s face it, we’re not really in the best of times here in good old 2020.

Is anyone else as excited for Lent as I am? After the cold, dark and dreary days of January and February, I can honestly say that having forty days to focus on a specific purpose sounds amazing. Don’t get me wrong, I love the holidays. Time with family at Thanksgiving is awesome. The lights and […]
