After many personal trials for both of us, Lance and I finally met each other in the
new year of 2018!

For me, I had been searching to find out what my vocation was. After I understood
the Lord did not want me to go into the convent, I came home, somewhat puzzled
and disheartened. I finally surrendered my “love life” to God and told him to do
what he pleased with it. With that, I also decided I was going to delete my Catholic
Singles account.

Well when I logged on, there Lance was, waiting with a message and a smile for
me. After some short introduction to each other- as well as a secret sign of
confirmation from my beloved Saint Therese of Liseux- Lance and I decided to
move on to a phone call shortly after that.

We ended up being “voices in the desert” to each other; his words to me, and
apparently mine to him too, were an oasis of refreshment to our parched souls. It
didn’t take long for us to want to meet in person, and fortunately for us we both
lived in the same state. Our first date was only a drive away.

On that day Lance greeted me with five red roses. This was also a gift from St.
Therese that I had been waiting for. Over a month before then, I said a novena to
the Saint, (who is also known by the title of “The Little Flower”) that she would
show me my vocation. Waiting expectantly for a rose from Therese, (which is the
gift she is notoriously known for giving to anyone who says a novena in her honor)
I had all but forgotten about it by the time of that special first date with Lance.
Since then, we have been on many adventures together, plenty of which had their
own trials in addition to the numerous joys we have experienced together. I will not
account for every one of those here however, because as that famous gospel
writer once said, “the world itself could not contain the books that would be
written” about these events and experiences.

In closing though I will say, that life’s hardships have only become much more
bearable because my life is now joined with Lance’s. We had our wedding in the
Catholic Church- at a basilica named after St. Therese of Liseux- in January of
2020. My husband gave himself completely to me on our wedding day, which was
also his birthday. Our story is detailed and beautiful- one that only the Master of
the heavens could come up with, as well as see it through. We continue to trust
him with our vocation each day.

Tyler and Amy like to say that God set them up via CatholicSingles. From their very first date, it was clear that they had been brought together for a purpose. Amy had recently moved across the country to start her career, and she was ready to share her life with someone special. Tyler grew up in the area, and he felt that he had met most of the local Catholic women through his involvement at parishes and Catholic schools. They each joined CatholicSingles with faith, hope, and an open mind, never imagining they would meet their future spouse just a couple weeks later. Tyler and Amy appreciated that meeting on a Catholic dating site allowed them to talk about their faith and other important topics early in their relationship. They very quickly discerned that God had called them to the vocation of marriage with one another. Six months after meeting, they were engaged; one year after that they were married. Now, Tyler and Amy enjoy growing together in their Catholic faith as they live and learn the sacrament of Holy Matrimony. They sincerely trust and believe that this vocation, with this specific person, has always been God’s plan for their lives.

We started talking 5/27/15 and two months later he deployed to Kuwait so we actually didn’t meet until exactly one year later 5/27/16 and then we got engaged one year after that 5/27/17 ( noticing a pattern here 😀. We were both on for a little over a year before we started talking to each other. We married just this past Saturday!

Kathie had lost her husband after 29 years of marriage, and I lost my wife to cancer after 39 years of marriage.  Both from different states, but God put us together.

We have been dating her for two years, and have decided to get married. It’s all because of you…… Thank you 🙏

My trip to Ecuador, meeting Alexandra and her family for the first time was incredible. So much so that we are now engaged. We had been corresponding for the last couple of months and during that time developed a very close and loving relationship. We discussed marriage prior to me going there and knew in my heart that Jesus brought us together. We both planned the engagement, I selected the ring and brought it with me, and she selected a romantic dinner for the evening and what is now our place in Quito where I proposed. We are committed to each other and connected in so many ways. The first and foremost is our love for Jesus and Mary answering both our prayers to find that special person.

We still have to plan our wedding date along with a number of other things. We will continue to share our story.

Kevin and Alexandra

My Husband and I met on this site in 2013. We had each been looking for a Catholic that shared our values and this is a great resource for bringing single Catholics together. We married a little over a year later and have happily welcomed our first child into the world. We have been extremely blessed and none of this would have been possible without your ministry to singles. You are truly doing God’s work! – Jessica

Matt and I met in September 2009 through your site after I had just moved to Michigan to start graduate school. We started dating soon after and have been inseparable ever since! Matt and I were married June 6, 2015. After celebrating our first holiday season together as a married couple, we are so excited to see what the years ahead have in store for us. Our next adventure is traveling to Disney World for our one-year anniversary to revisit where we were engaged. We are so grateful for CatholicSingles.com for bringing us together.

– Matt and Kristen

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Thank you for introducing me to my soul mate. Before I joined your site 3 years ago, I was a member of a few other high-profile dating websites, but I couldn’t find anyone I connected with on a deeper, spiritual level. Then I met Camille.

On our first date (lunch in New York City), besides the obvious, mutual attraction, we could instantly relate to our common upbringing and shared family values and things that mattered more to us than superficial qualities like a type of wardrobe or hair (or, in my case, the lack thereof).

You matched me with Camille in August of 2008, and we were married in August of 2011. I am proud to have her as my wife, and we look forward to many more happy memories together. Thank you again, from both of us!

Mike

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I met Nick on catholicsingles on July 3,2010 and we met in person at Walgreens on the 7th. I know it sounds cliche but it literally was love at first sight… There hasn’t been one day that we haven’t seen eachother. Nick the most amazing man I have ever met and is perfect for me in every way. We are planning on getting married in the spring of 2012 and just started looking at rings. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with Nick and thanks to CatholicSingles we found our soulmates. Thank you so much.

Sarah and Nick

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

In February, 2010, Joanie and I met on your website and experienced a turning point in our lives. I had given up on love long before that (sporting 5 years without a date). After long trials of loneliness, I resolved to set a message on your website calling out to the girl I didn’t believe could exist; and there on your website, she was listening. Joanie contacted me soon after that and we proved to each other that proper love was not out of reach. We met several times after that (Chicago, Omaha, Davenport), and grew in love for each other despite our homes being 635 miles apart. Joanie sends me cards and packages often to remind me that she loves me, and I still give her flowers every time we meet.

We have been engaged now for one month, and are beginning the many steps in planning our wedding and building a new home together. We have created so many loving memories together already that we can hardly contain our joy. Thank you again for being God’s vessel in bringing our lives together.

Andrew & Joanie

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I just wanted to take a moment and let you know of our success story. We were married June 18 2011 and have never been happier. We met in May 2007 on your website and were engaged April 2010. This site allowed us to find someone of the same values and background. We look forward to our future and starting a family. Thank you.

Maureen

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I just wanted to say thank you. My fiance and I met on Catholic Singles in November of 2010. Our wedding is next week.

Thank you

Jolie

About ten years ago in 2003, I joined CatholicSingles.com. On June 17, 2003, I sent a greeting to a new member named Photogal. We were married on June 5, 2004. Our daughter Clare was born on December 12, 2006. On June 17, we will celebrate the 10th anniversary of that first e-mail message on Catholic Singles that changed our lives and filled them with unimagined blessings. Thank you, Catholic Singles, for making it possible.

On Years Eve 2004 I remembered an ad for CatholicSingles .com. and because I wanted to meet someone and stay in my Catholic religion I sent a basic “do you want to chat” to a person that had posted (on the site).

On New Years Day I received a message saying I had mail on CatholicSingles.com. Well, to my surprise the message said ” Hi My Name is Elizabeth and you sit behind me in church with your daughter and grandchildren”. I asked her to please introduce herself to me next Sunday so we didn’t need to use the dating site. The next Sunday that lady who always sat in front of me wasn’t in church so I was really confused. After mass Elizabeth came around the corner and said she was late and it was the lovely lady who I had been watching for several months but never thought of talking to her.

We went out the following Saturday just lunch but it turned into a day and evening event going to dinner in Jackson.

Because of what happened to my late wife, after 3 months of dating I asked Elizabeth when she had her last physical. Her reply was she had “never had one”. I insisted she get one and she told me ” I don’t have a doctor ” I told her I had a female doctor and she would love her. Elizabeth told me she didn’t have the time. I made the appointment and made sure she went for her scheduled physical. As a result of that physical they found breast cancer but the good news it was stage one. We were married on July 8th 2005. It is now 8 yrs. that Elizabeth has been cancer free and we have been happily married.

Our 6 children have supported us in every way which makes our relationship even more special. I thank the good Lord every day because it is special to have true love 1 time in your life, but finding true love 2 times in life is very Special.

Oh yes, Elizabeth saw the catholicsingles.com only once the same as me and that ad has never been posted again.

Thank you Catholic Singles,

Robert & Elizabeth

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

We are are very greatful to Catholic Singles but we are single no more. My husband and I, Chris Staudt met 3 years ago and we got married October 15, 2011.

Sincerely,

Veronica

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I would like to thank CatholicSingles for giving me the opportunity to put my profile on line in June last year. HisMinstrall (Bill) sent me a smile across the world from America to Australia. I replied with offer to be an email pal as long distance relationship appears to be almost impossible. I was actually surprised when Bill responded positively.

We started off by exchanging photos and introducing ourselves. After months of regular emails, we decided to meet in person. Bill flew into Sydney Kingdford Smith Airport in October last year and i had no trouble recognising him. We got on fine in Australia. I knew at that time, Bill was the man of my dreams. I decided to accompany him back to America to spend more time with him.

To cut a long story short, Bill and I got engaged whilst we were in America. I returned to Australia and after another six months of emailing, we got married in South Lake tahoe, California on 15th April, 2012. We had a church wedding on the Feast Day of the Devine Mercy of Jesus. God works in mysterious ways and we are now happily married and I am settling down to the American way of life. Love makes the world go round and nothing is impossible. Here’s our wedding photo.

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Hi my name is Christine. My husband David and I met on Catholic Singles over 4 years ago. It really is a fairy tale story. We both were older and both knew that we wanted a spouse that shared the same religious beliefs and life values.

After a good friend at work persuaded me to go on Catholic Singles, I met David. After corresponding for a few weeks and talking on the phone we met in person. We had an instant connection from the start, but after meeting we were inseparable. We were both baptized and raised Catholic, we both wanted the same thing for our own family someday. We talked about marriage and the future right away, because once you meet the one you”ve searched for your whole life, you don’t have to wait years to know that you want this person in your life forever. He proposed October 26, 2008 and it was onto wedding plans and future plans and family intergration. It was all so exciting and it was also so exhausting. Without a man like David I don”t think I could have made it through that time. We decided to have our whole immediate family as part of the wedding. On August 29, 2009 we were married at the same church his siblings were and also baptised at. It was the story book, fairy tale wedding anyone could ask for. Picture included of wedding party will show you just how beautiful it was. Soon after we were married I became pregnant and on October 31, 2010, our absolutely beautiful and precious Abigail Josephine was born. We are now going to be happily married three years, and continue to plan for the future and keep God as the main staple in our lives. I have included pictures of our wedding a few of our daughter. We want to thank Catholic Singles for being the engine God used to bring us together, I hope there are many other couples that are blessed enough to find the love we have. All you have to do is just give yourself to God and he will take care of the rest. God Bless you all and thanks again!

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

We are finally sharing our story… Ron sent an email to Jean in October 2010, telling her he loved her profile. Jean responded, a little hesitantly, as Ron lived two hours away. We talked for many hours, before meeting each other in person in November. We knew God had a special plan for us. In April, Ron proposed,and we were married in a Nuptial Mass, in November 2011. God is so good! We both took a leap of faith in dating online, and we are glad we did, as He provided. We are so happy! We are thankful for your service.

Jean and Ron

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Jason & I met on Catholic Singles in June 2013. There were many differences between us, such as age and location, but there was a much stronger attraction and that was Christ. Jason had an account for many years and I had just given the site a chance when all it took was a smile to begin our conversation and the rest was history. We are currently engaged and there is no one i would rather spend the rest of my life with than him. Through the site I was able to be extremely honest in regards to my faith and expectations in a relationship. May God continue blessing your ministry in all that you do! Thank you for understanding the truth of how love should truly be through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Sincerely, Angelica

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Dennis and I are so grateful to God for bringing us together through Catholic Singles. People don’t realize how the smallest decisions they make every day truly have an affect on the rest of their lives. I am so happy I made the decision to join CatholicSingles.com that summer of 2010. Little did I know that by doing so, I would meet the man who I would spend the rest of my life with! Thank you again, CS!

Warmest regards,

Bernadette

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

My fiance and I owe our amazing relationship to Catholic Singles! A few years ago, I was moving from Michigan to Texas. I actually went on to Catholic Singles to delete my account but curiosity got the best of me and I typed in my new zip code. That’s when I first saw John (my now fiance). I thought “what a good looking guy!” I messaged him and he responded! We messaged back and forth for two weeks and then finally met up in person when I moved to Texas.

6 months later he proposed and we are now preparing for the wedding of our dreams! We are eternally grateful to CatholicSingles.com for creating a platform for serious Catholics to meet. John is everything I wanted in a man and more. Thank you Catholic Singles!

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I joined the website because I realized the traditional way of meeting people wasnt working for me. Aaron joined the site when he saw my profile. He sent me the first message 4/1/2012 through your CatholicSingles.com. I knew within a month of dating he was the one God chose for me. Our lives will never be the same. He proposed in December and we will be getting married this July. He makes me a better person for just knowing him and he consistantly helps me develop my relationship with god. I am so grateful for the gift of your services and that God used your services to introduce us. I just hope that many others have the same experience.

God Bless!

Natalie

Dear CatholicSingles.Com,

Mike and I met on CatholicSingles.com in January 2012 and a Nuptial Mass was celebrated on October 5, 2014. We are so grateful to God that through your website we found each other. We want to thank you by sharing our story and hopefully inspire others.

How we met…

Her version:

A dare to create a profile on CatholicSingles.com led to a cup of coffee invite from Mike. I was very hesitant as Mike lived two hours away from New York City. A series of e-mails followed in the four months before I agreed to meet Mike in person. We met on a very hot and humid Memorial Day Weekend in NYC. I had “Plan B” just in case I needed to jet out. In a span of seven hours, we talked over coffee, attended a Vigil Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral and talked some more over dinner in Chinatown. We have been inseparable ever since. We got engaged two years after we met. We didn’t want a long engagement and was able to pull through wedding plans in a few short months. We recently got married in Poughkeepsie, NY.

His version:

One of my brothers encouraged me to try online dating. I was very hesitant but decided to give it a shot, thus, creating a trial profile on CatholicSingles.com. After a month or two, I was ready to close my account when Anna’s picture popped-up as a suggested match. I was the total opposite of her profile but I thought I’d go for it anyway; hence, I invited her for coffee. Anna declined and suggested we get to know each other first “online.” Four months later, she finally agreed to meet me in person. I planned to stay for an hour and even had an emergency back-up plan. We parted ways seven hours later. We have been together ever since and were recently married.

Thank you CatholicSingles for the services you provide and bringing us together!

God bless!

Anna & Mike

I was a member on this site for approximately 4 years when I received an e mail from a lady whose screen name was jaregbesola. After a few e-mails back and forth we decided to met for lunch. Our first date on July 22, 2012 lasted only 4 and a half hours. After a few more dates we became engaged on October, 7, 2012 and we were married on August 10, 2013. We recently celebrated our first anniversary and we both are thankful to Catholic Singles for being there and giving us the chance to find happiness and love.

Mark & Jeanette

I just wanted to thank Catholic Singles so much for making God’s blessings possible in my life. The day I signed on to CatholicSingles, my husband had given up and had signed on to close his account. He saw my message and decided to hold on to hope. I was in California, and Matthew was in Florida. We would never have met if it weren’t for your site. We married two years after we “met” and are just about to celebrate our fourth wedding anniversary next week! We have a beautiful daughter and a vivacious son, and we’re preparing for a third baby someday soon. Our marriage and our kids bring us so much joy. I never knew such love and joy was possible before I was blessed with my husband and kids.

Thank you so much! God bless all of you! – Kristin and Matthew

Matt and I met in September 2009 through your site after I had just moved to Michigan to start graduate school. We started dating soon after and have been inseparable ever since! Matt and I got engaged in May 2014 and will be getting married in just 53 days! I’ve attached a photo from our engagement shoot. We are so grateful to CatholicSingles.com for bringing us together.

Kristen and Matt

I had joined Catholicsingles.com in early 2007 after being in a brief relationship with someone I had met through a different site. I knew I wanted to find someone who shared my same Catholic beliefs. I had met a few women through your site but I felt that I was trying too hard and I took several mini-breaks throughout my time on your site only to return with a clearer vision of what was meant for me.

In November 2007, I was in the chat room conversing with the usual group when Jenny73 entered. I was being polite and said hello and continued my chat with others. Jenny would interject with her comments and then sent me a private message commenting on one of my own messages. Over the next couple of weeks our conversations continued and progressed from chats on the computer to phone calls. We decided that we wanted to meet each other (even though) Jenny is from New Jersey and I am from Massachusetts and so we agreed to meet at Dunkin Donuts in Conneticut that lasted 13 hours. The next time we saw each other was Christmas when she came to Massachusetts for New Years Eve. After that we saw each other every other weekend. We continued to discern where our relationship was going and how were we going to make the distance thing work. We continued to see each other through the summer of 2008 and our feelings for each other continued to grow. We hated being apart from one another. After much discussion we decided that I would move to New Jersey. We became engaged and married on August 18, 2009. On September 21, 2010 we welcomed our son Ryan who is now four and a half. We can’t thank Catholic Singles enough for bringing us together.

Derrick & Jenny

We both needed a getaway and decided that the CS cruise to the Bahamas was a great way to spend some special time together. I had never been on a cruise before, or even out of the country, so Joe led me through the whole process. Little did I know that he was planning something much bigger than a simple vacation for us. It was the formal night on the cruise and we got all dressed up, had photos taken and had a wonderful meal at the bistro. Joe, as usual, was treating me like a queen.

I was thinking “it doesn’t get any better than this”… when Joe took my hand, got down on one knee. I gasped and my heart was in my throat as I listened to his beautiful proposal. Of course you know how I answered. On June 14, 2003 we will be joined as one. Never to be separated again. Praise God! Thank you CS for giving us the means to find each other. 

Sincerely – Katie & Joe

I guess I’m another one of your “success stories,” and I wanted to write and say “thank you” for the help. I had tried everything to meet someone special, and I had no success, no matter how much I prayed. I even tried and QUIT the Catholic Singles web site THREE TIMES (talk about frustration!) with no luck. Then, miraculously, after I signed back up the last time, I met the most special woman on Earth.

Unbelievably, we live only SIXTEEN BLOCKS away from each other! We had been going to the same stores, malls, library, and restaurants for THREE YEARS and never ran into each other until we met on Catholic Singles! We would never have met if we had not used your site. Talk about miraculous! We are so happy it is indescribable, and we are planning to get married once I finish my MBA program. To all those skeptics out there: it really works! You just have to keep praying, decide what you want in a partner, and stick with it. Thank you so much for all your help!

Take care and God bless you all! – Jeff

I always knew I wanted to meet a “nice Catholic boy” but wasn’t having much luck at my church in Ft. Myers so I decided to search try CatholicSingles.com. I came across Chris’ profile on the first day and thought “Oh, he’s cute and he’s a Physical Therapist!

We would definately have something in common! So I got a bit gutsy and sent him an e-mail and low and behold… he wrote back! We continued to write back and forth 2-3 times a week, sometimes more, for 6 weeks. We met three days later (February 22, 2003) and had a blast!!! The best first “date” ever! It was an instant soulmate connection! We got engaged in Key West on April 26th, 2003.

Thanks, Kierstin & Christopher

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Therese and I were engaged this past winter and are planning a Summer/04′ Wedding. She is my “soulmate” in every sense of the word and thank God all the time for bringing us together.

This was the greatest “mistake” that ever happened to me. We are truly blessed and hope that Catholic Singles is as successful for all it’s members as it has been for us.

God Bless, Therese & Ralphie

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I met a wonderful man on your site and now we are engaged to be married this June, 2004. We e-mailed back and forth for almost 3 months before we actually met in person. From the moment we met I knew I had found my match.

Kathy

Dear Catholic Singles,

It has been two years since our marriage, Jan. 21, 2000,and the two of us have never been happier. We were only 16 miles apart, one in NJ the other in PA.

We have to thank you and the service because without CatholicSingles.com we would never have met. Our love for each other and our faith in God continues to reach new heights. WE hope many other couples may share in Gods Blessings as we have.

God Bless You – Paul & Tori

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I met my husband on your site in July of 99. We corresponded for about 6 weeks before actually meeting. He lives about 120 miles away, so visiting was always a PLANNED event. We became great friends,…and finally in Sept of 2000 became seriously exclusive daters!

We got engaged in Nov. of 2000 and just married 2 weeks ago, on May 5th 2000. I want to Thank CatholicSingles.COM for providing an opportunity for us to meet in a safe environment, and for helping to promote the faith in a unique way….by joining catholics who will hopefully continue to encourage each others faith lives.

Lots of gratefulness – Marya and Nicholas

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

My husband and I met using catholicsingles.com in the late summer of 2000, and were married on November 3, 2001! We are now expecting our first child.

We’ve been meaning to write to you to tell you of our success using your Web site, but we have (obviously!) been busy! We are so happy, so blessed, and so grateful to your service – I don’t think we ever would have met without it. We would be more than happy to share the details of our story, and our beautiful wedding photos, with you as a testimonial.

Thanks and God bless – Kerri Ann

My husband and I are delighted to announce that we will be celebrating our very first Wedding Anniversary on September 29, 2002. We are so grateful to the Good Lord and to CatholicSingles.com who made all of this truly possible. It all started on September 2000 when we met on CatholicSingles.com. Within 3 months, we fell in love and became engaged. On September 29, 2001 we began our glorious union as husband and wife.

We were like many young adult Catholics who dreamed of finding a soulmate. Our dreams came true when we found each other, and we believe God will bless you with the same gift of love. Our first year of marriage has been an absolute joy. We share a life together as one, and I thank the Lord each and every day for such a beautiful gift. My husband is the light of my life, and I thank you at CatholicSingles.com for providing the path that lead us to each other. May God Bless You!

With Much Happiness – Arlene & Joseph

Dear CatholicSingles.com

Tom and Michelle Fox met September of 2000 through this site, and were married May 18, 2002!!!!

We have never been happier. We know God brought us together through this venue.

Love – Tom & Michell

Dear Catholic Singles,

In trying to help a friend search for a new soulmate after the death of his wife, I of course thought of catholicsingles.com which is where I met my wonderful husband.

I am extremely happy to update you that we were married in October 2001 after meeting in October 2000 on your site. Married life is WONDERFUL – and we thank you so very much for having this website available for Catholic Singles to meet. We hope our friend can be as lucky as we have been.

Again, thank you so VERY much – Chuck & Pat

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Like most other success stories, my wife and I have been meaning to thank you for some time. We met using your service in October of 2001 and were married in November of 2002. We cannot say enough good things about your service, and can even say that we recommended the service to a close friend, who also was recently engaged to the person she met here.

My wife and I have not been happier since we met on Catholic Singles, and we knew right away that we had met our soul mate. We were engaged after 8 months, and married withing the first year. We both believe, especially now, that the Lord does work in mysterious ways, we just never thought those “ways” would be web-based.

Thank you again, and God Bless, Joe and Trish

Dear CatholicSingles.com

I want to thank you for your service. My husband and I met through CatholicSingles.com and are happily married. I was living in Virginia at the time that we met, and he in Georgia. If it were not for CatholicSingles.com he and I would never have met. Thank you for making it possible to meet a wonderful, faith-filled Catholic gentleman!

Jennifer G.

Dear CatholicSingles.com

Jeff and I met here May 2002. I want to thank you for the channel that you have created for our paths to cross. There was no way a girl from California thought she’d meet her future husband in Kentucky.

We married in August of 2003 and we are now expecting our first child! Thank you so much for the opportunity to receive such gifts from God.

Nicole

Dear Catholic Singles,

I just wanted to thank you for this service. I met my husband on CatholicSingles.com 2 1/2 years ago. We were married just over a year ago.

Both of us had been waiting for that special person, and at last, we found each other through you! I am so grateful ?and have recommended the site to many friends. Please keep doing what you do. God does His hand in this!

Claire and Jim

Our wedding was on October 4, 2003, in St. Dorothy’s Church, Drexel Hill, PA. Jeri and I met in late February of this year on catholicsingles.com. She had been on the web site during 2002 without much success. I had been on at around the same time and met some very nice ladies, but nothing clicked. Our first meeting was for mass and breakfast across the street. One thing led to another; in June we both asked each other “Will you marry me?”; we both said yes, and the rest is history.

Thank you for all that your web site did for two middle-aged people who had had successful marriages, were widowed much too soon, and were blessed by God to find happiness again.

Joe & Jeri Santine

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I met my NOW husband in June 2002 and we married in November 15th, 2003… we met on catholic singles and it was WONDERFUL!!!!!

E-mails, meeting for our first date for lunch… and now we are married. After getting an annulment and getting married again in the Catholic church I cannot say enough how grateful I am to your service.

Thank you, Nadia Quiros-Horvath

I think everyone gets to a point in their lives when they are just ready to meet that certain someone. I had been single for over a year and was not meeting anyone. The mother of a catholic friend of mine suggested Catholicsingles.com and to be honest, I initially ignored the idea. After a month or so, I decided to give it a try. After a couple of months I was discouraged, but my mom told me to be patient. Sure enough, right after that, Eric emailed me.

He was kind, thoughtful, not pushy and most importantly a practicing catholic that cherishes family. After a month of emails and phone calls, we decided to meet and from then on we were close to inseperable. We dated for nearly two years, the best two years of my life. How wonderful it is to be able to pray with someone and tell them your secrets and stories and trust them indefinitely. On Valentine’s day of 2004, Eric proposed by making me a book of our story that included several pictures and calling it Chapter 1 of our life together. We were married at St. Annes Catholic church in Houston, TX on October 23rd. I can not express enough gratitude to God and catholicsingles.com for bringing Eric and I together.

Gus and I met on Catholic singles June 2004. He is a United States Marine and was serving in Iraq at the time he joined CatholicSingles.com. We met and corresponded for almost five months before we met in person. I was one of the first people he saw when he got back from the war.

Thank you, CatholicSingles.com, for giving me the opportunity to meet such a great person. It is through your website that God gave us the means to meet. We are discussing marriage in the near future… I will send an update!!!

God Bless you, Joanna

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

My husband and I wanted to write to update our success story and thank you again for introducing us! Chris & I met on CatholicSingles.com in January 2003. We became “e-mail pals” for 6 weeks since we lived three hours apart. We were not sure if we’d really have a “soulmate connection” because of the distance (and Chris was very against long distance relationships!).

We did decide to meet in the end of February 2003 at Busch Gardens for a “fun date.” It was more than fun — it was the best first date ever! We laughed and talked and rode roller coasters all day! I felt like I had just met my best friend, my soulmate! The distance did not end up being a problem as we saw each other every weekend and we talked every night.

Two months later we were engaged!! God does amazing things and we know He brought us together. Chris and I were married Feburary 28, 2004 at St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church in Ft. Myers, Florida. We thank God every day for each other and blessings we have received.

Thank you Catholic Singles for helping this union become possible.

God Bless you all, – Kierstin Weber

I wanted to share my success story with you. We met April of 2001. We Knew right away we would get married. I have two girls and he has taken on being the greatest father they could ever have. We both were married before and waited to go through church annulments and it was all worth it.

We had our dream catholic wedding in our church May 3rd 2002. We went on a beautiful honeymoon in Europe for 2 weeks we got back a few weeks later and found out we are expecting our 3rd bundle of joy February 6th 2003. 

We are the happiest people and the Lord definitely brought us together to witness his love for us. We plan on having a large happy catholic family together. 

Thank you for this website I would have never met Patrick if it was not for this website.

Sincerely, – Elizabeth and Patrick

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

We were married on November 27, 2004 at St. Stephen of Hungary Church in New York City. Emese had been on CatholicSingles.com for a while and had decided to give it one more month when… in July 2002… Peter contacted her after having recently joined. Peter lives in Pittsburgh, but is originally from Brooklyn, and he drove 420 miles to our first date in September at the San Gennaro festival in Little Italy, New York.

Needless to say, we would have never found each other without CatholicSingles.com. Since our faith is the cornerstone of our relationship, we’re always eager to tell people how we met, and encourage Catholics to turn to the website. Yours is a true ministry and we can never, never thank you enough for the beautiful dream we are living.

– Emese and Peter

Well, I had been divorced for about 1 and a half years and had tried other dating services, mainly to get back into the swing again as it had been so many years since I had dated. I found that other web-based services were lacking what I wouldn’t compromise on – that was dedication to my Catholic beliefs. After doing a search, I came upon Catholic Singles.

I was browsing one day and noticed Donald’s profile and picture. We were both “older” and had had a lifetime of experience. We each knew what we wanted from life and one important thing was to find someone to spend the rest of our life with. Donald proposed to me in March of this year and we are planning to get married in 2006. Managing a long-distance relationship is very challenging but we’ve used modern technology, i.e., e-mail, cell phones, and of course, plane trips to one another’s home town to spend time together.

We are so compatible. Who would have thought that a friendship could blossom into something so wonderful? He’s truly my soulmate and he feels the same about me.

– Loretta and Donald

I had just moved to Chicago as a medical student and had not met a lot of people in my new city. Andy had always been in Chicago, except for a small stint at Notre Dame. With the encouragement of friends, we both signed up for Catholic Singles to meet some new people but without much expectation. In May of 2004, Andy and I started a few conversations on-line and had spoken once or twice by phone.

Since I had never been to a Cubs game, and Andy being a very big Cubs fan, he invited me out to a game so that we could actually meet. We had a great time, the cubs lost, but we continued our evening over dinner and both thought we would keep in touch. We did keep in touch.

We were engaged to be married in April, 2005. Our ceremony and celebration will take place in San Diego on August 5th, 2005, just a few weeks away. We are so sincerely happy and amazed we found one another. And we are grateful that Catholic Singles had a role to play in helping our paths cross.

Thanks! – Ashley and Andy

Dear CatholicSingles.com:

Scott and I met on the CatholicSingles.com site in May of 2004. I had recently moved from NY to NC and was looking to meet a Catholic, professional like myself. The bar scene wasn’t my thing and being that I work from home, it is difficult to meet other professionals. I had tried speed-dating and one of the more “mainstream” online match services and didn’t find that someone special. I decided to try CatholicSingles.com.

The first week I joined Catholic Singles, I received emails from a lot of nice people, but many were from out of state. One night later in the next week I accidentally entered the chat room thinking I was going to read about how to do the chats — and Scott introduced himself.

Scott and I met for our ‘1st date’ at the Macaroni Grill about a week or so after we met in the chat room. He was as charming in person as he was on the phone and that night I knew he was the one. We had so much in common – from values and religious background to education and upbringing. We dated throughout the summer.

Scott and I got engaged on Sept. 3rd, 2004 on a small island off the coast of PR, called Vieques. It was quite a surprise and quite a romantic proposal, but Scott is quite an amazing man and I would have expected no less from him.

We were married in on a beautiful Spring day at St. Benedict’s Catholic Church in Greensboro, NC on May 21, 2005 — one year and one day from our first date at the Macaroni Grill.

Thank you – Karen Galiger

Brian and I met on the Catholic Singles website in August of 2003. I had only been a member for a few months when I came across Brian’s profile. As it turned out, Brian was only a few weeks from his subscription expiration when I e-mailed him. We e-mailed each other a few times, and then finally progressed to the phone. Our first conversation lasted two hours and ended with us finding out that we had the same birthday exactly six years apart!

The similarities didn’t end there and we had our first date on September 20th, 2003. Since that time, Brian and I have been steadily dating and have endured a lot together, including my mom being diagnosed with cancer. Through it all, our Catholic faith has not only kept us together, but allowed us to grow closer and more in love. On August 10th of 2004, Brian and I got engaged at LOVE Park in Philadelphia. Our wedding is set for December of 2005. I can say with absolute certainty that Brian and I are soulmates and that Catholic Singles was the vessel that brought us together. We feel especially blessed to have found each other and thank the Lord for introducing us to each other through Catholic Singles.

Thanks! – Brian Dunleavy

Dear CatholicSingles.com:

My wife and I met on Catholic Singles in May of 2003, at which time Debbie was, ironically, “Member of the Month.” After emailing each other for a few weeks, we exchanged telephone numbers and finally spoke a few weeks later. Our initial phone conversation lasted well over three hours. Approximately one month later, I flew from Maryland to California to visit Debbie for the first time, in person.

As is obvious this was truly a long distance relationship. We exchanged eight cross country trips prior to our engagement on June 30, 2004, followed by another eight cross-country visits prior to our wedding day in Westlake Village, CA on July 23, 2005. Our relationship is proof that GOD works in wonderful ways and our love for one another is proof of his work even barring the distance and obstacles between us. We now reside in Easton, MD – just east of Annapolis, MD. Thank you for providing us with the vehicle in which to meet. We are forever grateful. We wish all of you on this site many blessings in finding your soul mate.

God Bless – Greg & Debbie Smith

I was searching for a nice catholic man to date, so I joined several catholic dating websites. On August 2002, I decided to give Catholicsingles.com a try and I chose the user name “Autumsun.” I was just about to give up all hope in finding that special someone on the internet when out of the blue I received a message from “athletic_engineer” on the Catholicsingles.com website.

His message sounded so cute, so I decided to check him out. As I studied his picture and profile, I got very excited! At that moment, I knew that I had found my soulmate. We chated on the telephone a few times and then went out on a date. It turns out that we have the same interests and we both are highly involved in the church. I did not think I could meet anyone like him on the internet. Athletic_Engineer ended up becoming my husband on 4/24/04. I believe that it was God’s plan for us to find each other on Catholicsingles.com. Thank you Catholic Singles!

Lisa Ann & Kevin

Dear Catholic Singles,

My wife and I were married on December 17, 2005 in a small but joyful ceremony in Nova Scotia, Canada.

After several years of meeting and dating all the wrong people the “traditional way” we finally surrendered ourselves to God’s plan for each of us- whatever that was- whether it be married or single. And so when we joined Catholic Singles in March, 2005, neither of us held high expectations but prayed that if anything were to happen, it would be with a partner who shared the same values and faith foundation.

Only God’s intervention could have brought us together as my wife lived in Nova Scotia, Canada and I was living in Minnesota. In our profiles, we had both checked the box to meet someone over “any distance” but neither of us expected that someone to be from another country (funny how God works). There was an immediate connection on e-mail and our first phone call lasted over five hours.

We complete each other’s sentences, laugh at the same things, and are so well matched it is truly amazing. We can just be ourselves with each other and it feels incredible to have met the soulmate God had intended for each of us all along.

On August 20, 2005, I proposed to Kerry to our song, “The Eyes of My Angel” by Pat Balder. We married in Nova Scotia in December which was our 10th in-person meeting (a short courtship being completely out of character for both of us). Getting married during the season of our Christ’s birth seemed to be the most appropriate way for us to thank God for bringing us together.

In a world tainted with cynicism and doubt, we feel especially blessed in knowing that it was our faith in God and in love that ultimately brought us together. At the center of our deep love and friendship is a faith-based commitment to grow in Christ together and to honor and celebrate our Sacrament of Marriage forever. We thank you for your part in helping God bring us together in “perfect love”.

May God Bless You Abundantly,
Kerry & Troy

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

In October of 2003, my daughters convinced me to try the internet as a source of meeting new men. Marriage was definitely not on my mind. As a widow for nearly 9 years I had become rather set in my ways and I was not looking for much of a change. But I did want to find someone I could meet for dinner or a play or any one of New York’s cultural events.

After a long lecture on internet safety and how to act on a blind date, my daughters told me to think of something that was important to me and then find a singles group that matched. As a teacher in a New York Archdiocesan High School, religion was definitely a priority and a quick look on the internet led me to CatholicSingles.com.

I met several wonderful men on CatholicSingles.com, but nothing clicked until I found Quietwalks. We lived about 20 miles from one another, but my job was only about 3 miles from his home. I made the connection and after several e-mails, we had our first date the day before Thanksgiving. We clicked from day one and from there the relationship seemed almost guided by another force.

We have four grown children, three of whom went to the same high school. And yet it took CatholicSingles.com to bring us together. We were married by his brother, a priest in Alaska, in December 2004. We just celebrated our one year anniversary and we look forward to many years together. Thank you for bringing us together! 

Mary Jane

Dear Catholic Singles,

Thank you for your valuable service. Rob and I met through your website in August of 2003. After two weeks of emailing and talking to each other on the phone, we met for the first time. After 3 dates, we knew we had something special. We continued to date and in October of 2004, Rob proposed. We just got married in May of 2005 at a beautiful church ceremony with all our family and friends.

Thank you CS for providing a forum for Catholics to meet who are serious about their faith. Rob and I both were and had trouble in the past finding someone with a deep commitment to their faith. We had tried the traditional single groups, church groups, and friend fix-up route to no avail. Rob and I both knew what we were looking for, and after reading each other’s profiles, we knew the other was serious about their faith and about finding a mate. That was confirmed through our subsequent conversations. Who would have thought one little email could bring a guy from the City and a girl from the burbs to each other, but here we are and we are extrememly grateful.

To those of you still looking, we offer our story as a sign of hope. This method may not work for everyone, but it is an option and it can have great results. Just pray for God’s direction and He will lead you.

Lisa and Robert Jost

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

After another single birthday in the fall of 2003 and following a Christian friend’s advice, I decided to channel my energy into a Catholic site with the hope of finding a partner who would share my religious beliefs. Pete returned from the holiday season in Spain with similar thoughts in mind. In late February 2004, we swapped a few emails and agreed to meet over a casual dinner on March 5th. After an almost 3-hour dinner, we knew we had a lot in common. Despite being raised in opposite ends of Texas and traveling throughout the world to different places, we both had similar stories to share about family, friends and dreams. Within a few dates, it was clear we were meant to find each other. We were engaged 4 months later and married on January 22, 2005.

We will always thank God for blessing us in our relationship and will be grateful to CatholicSingles.com for providing the venue for us to meet!

May God bless you always.
Cecilia & Pete

Dear Catholic Singles,

I was a 41 year old widower who had lost his wife in an accident some six years before that left me with a badly crippled daughter and many responsibilities. I had dated for about four years or so but did not find what I was looking for. So, I tried dating services. A very expensive secular service yielded slim results, a Christian service was better, but I had no success until I found Catholic Singles.

Lily was 33 year old, never dated, never married. She was a refugee in a strange country and recently liberated from a long obligation taking care of family. Catholic Singles was the first and only place she would look for a spouse. The first two contacts she made did not work out, but then she found Richard’s Profile.

Lily e-mailed me. She was not what I was expecting. But both of us had prayed to God reverently for a spouse and were willing to accept whom He sent us. I was a fat white guy and she was a short skinny Chinese girl, but I wanted to meet her. We set up a short date. I met her on the steps of the Cathedral in San Francisco. She invited me in to begin our relationship with the Rosary before the Blessed Mother. I chose the Luminous Mysteries which I recited by heart and added my own reflections to establish my “credentials” as a Catholic. We went to the business her family owned to get permission, as was the custom in her culture, to go to the Park for a Picnic. That was followed by several more visits back and fourth and a strong bond of friendship and determination to bridge the cultural gap between us and develop in the faith we shared together. Great prayer and contemplation let us both to commit to each other in marriage and our relationship solidified in the pre-Cana process and a year of happy marriage.

Lily & Richard

Dear Catholic Singles,

My husband Ken and I met on your website back in August 2002. We were married this past June 18th, 2005. Thank you.

I joined CatholicSingles.com in March 2002. I was scared but excited to try this because I was tired of not meeting anyone and thought this might give me a good chance. I emailed several guys but nothing happened until August of ’02. That’s when I saw Ken’s profile newly posted. He looked like someone I might be interested in, so I emailed him and just said, “hi.” I received a response back from Ken the next day, and he had quite a bit to say.

After emailing for what seemed like a long time, though it was really only 2 weeks, Ken gave me his phone number. We talked for a month before we actually met. Our phone calls were wonderful and usually lasted hours. Our first meeting was October 5th, 2002, and it lasted over 6 hours. There was definitely a connection!

We continued to date and see each other over the weekends since we lived over an hour away from each other. We have so much in common from the way we were raised to our fathers both graduating from the same university in the same school of business to what we like to do in our free time to our core beliefs and values.

In June 2004 Ken proposed at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. It was a beautiful and perfect day. And this past June we were married. Thank you CatholicSingles.com for giving Catholic singles an opportunity to meet one another. Without your website, my husband and I never would have met.

Ken and Christine

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I joined CatholicSingles.com in December of 2003 and little did I know that I would find my soulmate and best friend. It took six months to finally meet her. I had just returned from a cruise vacation to Bermuda and decided to check my e-mail on the CatholicSingles.com website. To my surprise, Tessa (laughnsmile76) had contacted me while I was away on vacation.

Amazingly, it did not take long for us to begin learning about one another through e-mailing on the website for two weeks and realize there was something very special developing between us. I gathered the courage to call her a week later and things just took off from there.

It didn’t take long during our first meeting to realize that there was a potential for something special to develop between us. We have now been dating for over a year and a half and both of us realize that we were meant to be with one another. In that being the case, I decided to propose to Tessa on Christmas Eve. She said “YES” and now we are planning to marry on July 28, 2007.

Isaac

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

This note is to thank you for your services. Mike and I are getting married in August. Mike initially emailed me in July 2004. It turned out he already knew several of my friends and attended events at my church, our paths had just never crossed.

Last December, he proposed on a suspension bridge above a cloud rain forest in Costa Rica. We have been busy getting ready for our wedding and spending our lives together, as well as going on lots of adventures together. I never thought God would have me meet my future husband on the Internet! (I’m sure glad I listened to my friends who almost dared me to do it!)

Thank you so much,
Christine

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Tom and I met in January 2003 in the chatroom on CatholicSingles.com. I was scanning the profiles as was my habit when chatting with new people, and I realized that Tom and I had something in common, we had both been to World Youth Day Toronto 2002. I thought that this bald cowboy from Colorado was kind of cute and very interesting. My roommate, in Michigan, just laughed when I said, “Well, I’ve found my soulmate, it’s too bad he lives in Denver, Colorado!” I know it is cliche to say it was love at first sight especially in the arena of on-line dating where relationships are rarely “first sight” but I knew there was something special about this one.

On October 24th, 2004 Tom got down on one knee and proposed at the Mother Cabrini Shrine (where we had gone on that first spring break trip the year before.) Then on July 2, 2005, Tom and I were forever joined in Holy Matrimony at Immaculate Heart of Mary parish back home in Lansing. Now a little more than a year later we are excitedly awaiting the birth of our first child, John Paul. To tell our success story about meeting online and falling in love was a little strange at first, but now I cannot imagine my life any differently.

Sarah & Tom

Dear Catholic Singles,

In July of 2002, I enrolled in Catholic Singles, based on the advice of my cousin, who had enjoyed being a site member. I was pretty disinterested and noncommital about the idea of online dating, having never done it before this enrollment. I had been on the site about two weeks when I received a funny and interesting email. Seamus had been on CatholicSingles.com for a short while and had decided I would be his last attempt at online dating, which he had started to find tiresome due to other secular singles websites. I wrote him back, somewhat interested but not too hopeful.

However, Seamus was the first person who contacted me and the last. Seamus and I had many things in common; we knew this just from our emails: the same sense of humor, value of faith and family, and a common Irish heritage. We went on our first date on July 28, 2002. Neither one of us wanted the date – dinner and a walk – to end. We were both instantly comfortable with each other. We spent the next two years in a long distance relationship – about three hours apart within upstate New York. This was challenging but drew us even closer together in many ways. We spent precious time together enjoying nature in the Adirondacks, museums in the city and just getting to know one another.

On December 4, 2004, Seamus proposed at our favorite nature preserve. We were married on July 30, 2005 in our beautiful historic church in Albany. Bagpipers led us out of the Mass and into our life together.

CatholicSingles.com offered an array of opportunities for Seamus and I, but ultimately, it led to the best opportunity of both our lives: to marry someone who held Catholic moral beliefs and values in the same esteem AND who was a fun, loving, humourous and gentle person. We are extremely grateful for that. I don’t think either one of us ever really thought we would marry someone from “the Internet” but God obviously had other plans for us!! Thank you, Catholic Singles. Someday, we will tell our grandchildren about our time – however limited! – on Catholic Singles! God is good.

Kira and Seamus

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

This is to thank you for your website. I didn’t use to go to parties or to clubs at night to meet people. I was dedicated to my work, helping people. I was working as a Social Worker; but I wanted to meet someone special, with a very good heart. I checked other websites before trying yours, but in none of them I found the people that I found here. So, I decided to sign for this one and in less than three months, I got the opportunity of meeting a man with the most wonderful heart that I have ever met. This happened in March of 2003. After 9 months he proposed to me. Our engagement lasted 6 months and we got married in June 24, 2004.

We have been happily married since then. This is the first time in my life that God gave me the opportunity of enjoying so much love and happiness. We have two kids. As I tell everybody that I know, my family is my happiness and I owe this to your service.

Thank you so much,
Marie

Dear Catholic Singles,

I wanted to write and thank you for the role that you played in bringing Chris and I together. We met through your website in July of 2005. I had not had much luck with the whole on-line dating thing and I was not expecting Chris to be any different. However I decided to give it one last chance. We met and on our first date when he said that he also loved Mister Rogers, I knew that he was different. We were engaged in May 2006 during a trip to Boston, and we were married on December 16, 2006. God has blessed us with each other and we are grateful for your website for allowing us to meet.

Laura

Dear Catholic Singles,

Thank you for introducing me to my husband. We first met on your website in July 2004 and just got married on October 7th, 2006. Him being from Chicago and myself being from Winnipeg Manitoba, Canada, our courtship was trying but completely worth it. We currently reside in Chicago and are excited to begin our lives together. We will pray for your ministry and hope you keep us in your prayers. Being able to find a partner who has a strong foundation in the Catholic faith is a foundation for a wonderful relationship and family. Your ministry truly can help build strong Catholic families. God Bless you for that!

In Christ,
Danielle and Chris

Dear Catholic Singles,

I just wanted to share a success story with you! Shawn Shannon and I first met through your site in April 2005. We both agreed that our first date was one of the most fun dates we’d ever been on, and our relationship just kept getting better. On April 6, 2007, we became engaged! We are hoping to get married in December 2007. We didn’t live very far away from each other, but we probably never would’ve met if it weren’t for your site.

Thanks!
Carrie Walters

Dear Catholic Singles,

We met through your website in 2004 and were married in April 2006. We are now expecting our first child this August!

Our Catholic faith is important to both of us and with it we have built a wonderful and long-lasting partnership. Without this website, we would have never met each other. Thank you for bringing us together.

Sincerely,
Craig and Casey

Dear Catholic Singles,

Kate and I found each other on CatholicSingles.com on October 16, 2006 and we met for the first time in Boston on January 11, 2007. Now, we are less than 75 days until we marry on Sept 1. Earlier this month, we had a great time during the Catholic Engagement Encounter course and we even wrote love letters to each other over that weekend.

We would like to thank you all for your continuing support, love and prayers.

Dennis & Kate

Dear Catholic Singles,

We are one of your success stories and I am just writing to give you an update. 2 weeks after we celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary (we were married 5/21/05) we welcomed our son, Peter Joseph into our family. He was born on 6/4/06 – and is the joy of our lives. We were so fortunate to have found each other thanks to CatholicSingles.com. But we’re even more blessed to have a family. Attached is a pix of Scott and I with Peter Joseph – “PJ”.

Thank you for everything.
Karen, Scott and PJ Kane

Our friends at CatholicSingles.com,

We’ve got to tell you that you are losing two of your former members for the best possible reason: We are getting married! And yes we met on CatholicSingles.com.

After three great years of dating and growing closer together in the Lord, I popped the question to Miss Lynn Margaret Catherine O’Neill aboard a ferry crossing the Shannon River near Ireland’s West Coast and Lynn agreed to be my beautiful bride. We have penciled in the last Saturday in July, 2008 at St. Joseph’s Chapel at Spring Hill College, the Jesuit College of the South.

While we are obviously now “spoken for” we remain your very loyal supporters and remain ready to help you in you ministry by way of references to our friends, family and clients as well as testimonials.

In short, we couldn’t have done this without you so WE OWE YOU BIG TIME!

When we first started dating, our favorite prayer was “God is good all the time.”

Now we pray “God is VERY good all the time.”

May God continue to bless all our brothers and sisters at CatholicSingles.com.

John J. Robb
Mobile, Alabama

Dear Catholic Singles,

After years of traveling down a long and winding broken road, God intervened. We feel our faith and God is what brought us together. However in literal terms, we met on that crazy internet.

One of them “dating” sites, however it was no ordinary dating site, this one was special. This was a site that geared toward our faith and religion. We met at CatholicSingles.com!

We started emailing each other the beginning of October of 2005. We got engaged on September 29, 2006 and got married on August 18th, 2007 in Detroit, Michigan. It was a full Catholic Latin mass. You heard that correctly, LATIN!

Our wedding showed the tremendous love we have for each other, our faith, and our family.

Jamie and Sonya

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

We started emailing each other in early Jan 2007 on your website. A couple of weeks later we spoke on the phone for the first time, and in Feb, the week of Valentines day, we had our first date. We have seen each other every weekend since then, and have emailed or spoken to each other every day since our first email.

On Oct 26, 2007 we became engaged and plan on getting married in July of 2008. We feel so blessed to have met each other. Neither of us has ever been married and had nearly given up on ever finding someone to share our lives with. Of course, we never would have met without your website, and we so grateful to you for giving us the chance to find our soulmate.

Thanks!

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

We are SUCCESS STORY Page 3 (7th story down the page).

We just celebrated our 8th Wedding Anniversary on January 21st, 2008. We are still very much in love and met on CatholicSingles.com. We have told our story so many times, often to people who doubt that internet dating can be any good. Well it can be very, very good. We are proof. We are active in our parish and find strength in our belief in God.

Thank you, CatholicSingles.com, for bringing us together.

Paul and Tori

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

We were your Success Story in January 2008. We wanted to follow up with more wonderful news! We had our baby girl, Clarissa (after St Clare) Ann, on December 27, five days late. She was baptized on January 31, the Feast of St John Bosco. She is truly a child of CatholicSingles.com!

Vernon & Emilia

Dear Catholic Singles,

We met on Catholic Singles in Spring of 2003 and married in June of 2005. We both thank God everyday for all the blessings that this Love has brought into our lives. Most of all, our beautiful daughter who is the light of our lives.

It is such a gift to find someone with similar values, beliefs and faith and we are grateful to CatholicSingles.com for providing another medium for God to bring people together. The great thing about meeting online was that we both knew we had a starting point of sharing our faith. It gave us a chance to get to know the basics about one another before we even met in person!

I had been on Catholic Singles for a while, but knew I did not want to move out of our rural state. It was difficult meeting anyone on the website in our area. I would check from time to time to see if there was anyone new in the area. One day there was a very interesting profile. I reactivated my account… the next day I had an email from Thom!

Thom’s father had seen an article in Catholic Digest and suggested he try Catholic Singles out. It wasn’t long after he was on the website that Kelly’s profile popped up. We began emailing and found we lived about three hours apart. We had many common interests, views and knew common people.

After about a month of emails and phone calls, we decided to meet. It was such a comfortable first date-laughing, being outside, getting to know one another. We both knew something was “different” this time around. Our families and friends were a huge support for us. About six months into our relationship, we knew that it was worth the risk of making some life changes and we were able to move to the same town.

Well, needless to say, we were married in June, 2005. We now have a daughter who was born around Christmas 2006. We both truly believe that God will use whatever means possible to bring two people together when they are both ready.

Thanks again,
Thom and Kelly

Dear CatholicSingles.com:

My wife Jo-Ann and I are certainly one of CatholicSingles.com’s success stories. We met on June 30, 2003 after a short correspondence by computer. There was an immediate attraction, not only because of common interests and personal compatibility but also, and maybe primarily, because of the faith that we share. We had lived only a few miles apart in Queens, NY for years and both of us even knew a couple of the same people but we most likely never would have met without CatholicSingles.com. To make a long story short, we were married early in 2004 and ever since we have felt as though we have one of those marriages made in Heaven. So we are certainly indebted to CatholicSingles.com

Sincerely,
Michael and Jo-Ann Henry

Dear Catholic Singles,

My wife and I met through this site about four years ago. We got married on December 30, 2006. We are very happy together.

Our friendship turned into a relationship very quickly. We are attracted to each other on a deep spiritual level and we are best friends. It’s not easy in today’s world to find someone who has a strong faith and similar values. It just made sense to both of us to search for someone on this site.

We truly believe God has a say in our marriage and in how we met. So we wanted to thank you for everything you do. We are proof that God does work in all kinds of ways. We encourage single people to use this site and above all to have faith that God will take care of their needs. Thanks again, and God bless.

Sean and Johanna

Dear Catholic Singles,

Ruben and I met soon after we had both subscribed to your website, around July 2006. We physically met on February 17, 2007 and we say it was love at first sight and at first bite. That first date lasted for fourteen hours. On the second date he asked me to marry him because he was convinced that he had met the girl he wanted to marry.

Finally on January 1, 2008 we both agreed to start planning for our wedding. I got everything I asked for, that is, the courtship, the wooing and a gentleman for a lifetime. We were married Saturday, July 05, 2008 and we plan on working very hard to make this marriage work. There has never been a doubt that this is the man God has set aside for me as my lifetime partner.

Lastly, because of this website and its format, I can say that chatting on the web is a great way to meet great people even though we might never meet them physically. Many thanks to all who chatted with us and who were gracious enough to wish us well in our future when we announced we were leaving the chatroom.

Best wishes to all,
Ruben and Anita

Dear Catholic Singles,

We are finally writing our story to personally thank Catholic Singles for this wonderful blessing. Our story begins with a couple of my friends who had met their husbands on secular websites telling me I needed to bite the bullet and put my profile out there and see what would happen. I was a little apprehensive, since I had heard many horror stories about dates gone badly from friends who were active on other websites! I finally gave in and funny we joined almost about the same time, he in July 2004 and I in August.

When Alfredo emailed me, and I checked his profile out and saw that he was from Northern California, I almost sent him an email that I was not interested as I lived in Southern Cali. But something about his smile made me respond differently. We began to email each other and well now it’s history. He has a great sense of humor and would just make me laugh, soon visits were not enough and on a beautiful April day in 2005, he proposed at the Getty Center overlooking Beverly Hills. We got married 2 months later in a civil wedding in San Jose, Ca and in December, we were eventually married in Claremont CA at Our Lady of Assumption, just a mere 14 months after we met.

We are very thankful to Catholic Singles and of course to God for giving us the opportunity to find each other. We believe that God has a plan for our lives and continues to keep our marriage strong. I encourage others to give this site a chance and place your trust in God and you might find your life-long partner, just like we did. Just recently we had our first child, Lorenzo John, he is the biggest blessing of all as we struggled to conceive, with God’s help and many prayers, he is our little miracle.

Dina and Alfredo

Dear Catholic Singles,

Jenny and I met in the chatroom in November of 2007. She had joined the website earlier that month on the advice of her parish priest. One day I was in the chat room getting ready to sign off when she came in. I told her that I was signing off but since she was in the room that I would stay for a while.

Now, I live in Massachusetts and she lives in New Jersey so, this would take some planning. I like to plan things out so, I thought that I would plan our first date. From my house to Jennys is 5 hours and 34 minutes or 337.4 miles. So, I found a mutual halfway point.(Waterbury. CT). We agreed on 9:30 am 12/1/07. I pulled into the parking lot and there she was waiting in her car. I gave her a big smile and a wave and she smiled and waved back. We both got out of our cars and gave one another a hug. Over the next 4 and a half hours, we sat at that Dunkin Donuts just talking and getting to know one another. We hit it off immediately.

We continued to see each other over the next few weeks. I flew down to New Jersey for Christmas and she came to Boston for New Years Eve. We spent 5 days at Lake Placid with her family and friends in February. On March 29,2008 while overlooking the Gillette Castle and State Park in East Haddam, CT, I got down on one knee and proposed to Jenny. Jenny’s grandfather used to say that every pot has its lid and Jenny and I knew that we were each others lid. We are hoping to marry April 18, 2009 in Atlantic City, New Jersey and we are grateful that Catholic Singles brought us together.

Sincerely
Derrick and Jenny

Dear Catholic Singles,

Troy and I (married December 17, 2005 and you have our wedding photo and story on your site) remain over-the-moon happy in love and in faith in Minnesota.

On January 15 of this year, we were overwhelmingly blessed and overjoyed to welcome our first child, son we named Samuel Xavier Bernard. We chose Samuel because his name means “asked of God” and “gift from God”. He was definitely prayed for and is considered our true gift from God. He has brought a lot of extra fun and love into our home and we are enjoying every second of every day with him. I’ve attached a picture of him.

We hope this e-mail finds you well. Enjoy a happy, safe and relaxing holiday.

Kerry and Troy (and Sam too)

Dear Catholic Singles,

We just wanted to thank you for CatholicSingles.com. My husband and I met on this site in November of 2005! I had just graduated from Graduate School, which had me so busy I couldn’t even see my friends, let alone try to date. Chris worked very long hours at his office, trying to climb the ladder in the corporate world. Neither of us were people to go to bars to pick someone up. We both are introverted and more homebodies. We also would have never met in passing as we lived over 80 miles apart from one another. We did meet, through CatholicSingles.com and were married on December 27th, 2008! We both thank God for this site as we both wanted to find the ‘right’ person. We truly believe that God led us to one another on this site.

Thank you and God Bless!
Chris and Megan Mottet

Dear Catholic Singles,

We would like to thank Catholic Singles for providing this great website for everyone. David and I met on this website in May of 2007. We communicated via the emails and telephone for a month before we travelled 2 1/2 hours to meet in person. On December 24, 2008, David proposed to me. Our wedding will be held this May, 2 years and 10 days after we met. God always has a plan for us, we just need to listen and be open for the call.

Thanks again,

Angela & David

Dear Catholic Singles,

We wish to let you know our experience and to thank you because, through your website Tom and I met on January 2006 and since then, we began to grow a nice friendship; despite the distance between us, he was in NM and I was in Lima – Peru, we get to know each other and share our faith and values.

After our first meeting in Lima on September, we enjoyed traveling to amazing places like Nazca Lines and Macchu Picchu in Cusco, we realized that God put us together, and on November that year I met his family for Thanksgiving. Even though we stayed in our own places, we keep growing our love and knowing each other better. By July 2007 he proposed while I was visiting in USA for a month vacation; we both knew that we had to make big decisions to make this work and we put all these in our prayers, finding the answers we asked for, and on December 29th 2007 we had the most wonderful wedding with our families and friends in a beautiful Colonial Church in downtown Lima.

We celebrated our first anniversary with our Lord’s blessings and we wanted to share this story with you and the faithful people that look for a good partner through CatholicSingles, to build a solid relationship where sharing their faith in our Lord is the key for success.

Blessings,

Tom & Susi

Dear Catholic Singles,

Thank you for providing a service for Catholics to meet and fall in love. My husband and I met on your website, and were married on June 27, 2009.

When Darin and I met over 5 years ago, both of us had come out of long-term relationships that left each of us heartbroken. From the moment that we met, however, we knew this was different and special. Since we are both devout in our Catholic faith and shared the same heritage, we immediately knew our bond had lots of potential.

That potential quickly blossomed into a wonderful relationship…a close friendship and a connection that was very unique and very special to both of us. We both felt as if we had known each other for years. A year after we met and dated, Darin landed a job in Sydney. Since we didn”t know what the future would hold, we decided to remain friends and keep in touch.

Throughout the years, we stayed very close. I visited Darin in Australia, but didn”t think we would ever be more than just friends. It took a series of tragedies, life experiences, and a little “Divine Intervention” for us to realize that one of the most precious gifts that God had ever given to us was right there all along!

Any number of things could have happened after that first e-mail but, in the end, we wound up together. We are enjoying each other today as much as the day we met in that litle Polish restaurant in the East Village, NYC. We both believe that God has a plan for our lives…and that plan is for us to be together.

Our wedding was truly a “New York” wedding, complete with a beautiful Mass in Polish and English, a vintage cab ride around Manhattan, a terrace overlooking the Empire State Building, and guests from all over the world.

In the words of Natalie Merchant, we are both truly “blessed and lucky!”

Jolanta and Darin

Dear Catholic Singles,

Shawn and I found each other through CatholicSingles.com in April, 2005. When we met in Denver for dinner, we both agreed that it was one of the most fun dates either of us had ever been on, and our relationship just kept getting better. We became engaged in April of 2007 (on Good Friday!), and we were married in the snowy mountains of Colorado on December 21, 2007. We are now enjoying our life together in the Seattle area. Back in 2005, we didn’t live very far away from each other, but we probably would have never met if it weren’t for your site.

Thanks!

Carrie and Shawn

Dear Catholic Singles,

Tim and I met on CatholicSingles in April 2003. He found me, I should say. After e-mailing for about 2 weeks, and talking on the phone another week, we met in person. Tim invited me over to his apartment for a home-cooked dinner and by the time we hugged goodbye that night, it was obvious to both of us that this was something special. Within a month or two we were already talking about getting married. We were officially engaged 6 months after we met, and married 9 months later. Nine months after our wedding, our daughter was born! 🙂 We now have three great kids – 4 1/2 years old, 3 years old, and 3 months old.

I know it was God’s will that we were to be together. And just as He speaks to us in small ways throughout each day, He inspired us to join CatholicSingles and use that as a tool for us to meet. I really don’t know how Tim and I could have ever crossed paths without CatholicSingles – we lived 60 miles apart at the time! One of the biggest (and hardest) lessons I’ve learned in life is that of letting go of one’s own will and surrendering it to that of God’s.

God bless,

Kim, Tim, Teresa, Katie, and Tommy

Dear Catholic Singles,

Shortly after joining Catholicsingles.com in 2006, we met on this site and soon began dating. In 2007 Ken proposed to me at Niagara Falls, NY, USA. We were married on October, 4th 2008. Thank you Catholicsingles.com for helping us meet each other”s dream mate.

Michelle & Kenneth

Dear Catholic Singles,

I was on the site for a few months when this man sent me a message. I had been looking for a man who shares my strong religious beliefs and fidelity to the Church. We exchanged a few emails, and Nathaniel took me out to a lovely restaurant (yes, I followed all the rules for on-line and offline dating, like meeting at a public place, etc.) He was sweet and quite the gentleman, but not the idea of my prince. You know, sometimes those little things that you dream of, like physically looking up to a man – his being taller than you – can get in the way of you”re receiving God”s gift. After much reflection and prayer, I decided that this man would be a help to me on my journey to heaven, and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. Now we are best friends, lovers, and brother/sister in Christ. He proposed on August 29th, 2009 and we had a simple wedding ceremony on December 28th, 2009. I thank God for using Catholic Singles to bring us together.

He is taller than me, now that I know him. He is wise, very educated in the female psyche, and actually understands me! He is a good listener, very sensitive to my feelings, and a great kisser!

I pray for all on this site, that they may be open to the blessings God has in store for them.

Bernadette

Dear Catholic Singles,

Here is an update since our wedding. We celebrated our 3 year anniversary April 21 of 2010. We have three kids and one on the way. We’ve always loved our story of meeting on CatholicSingles.com, of course, and hope more people will be inspired by it. Thank you CatholicSingles.com!

Matthew and Erica

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Back in June of ’06, I was discerning whether I was called to the priesthood or the married life. I asked my spiritual director if it would be wrong for me to subscribe to CatholicSingles.com. His reply was, “Since you don’t know your calling yet, it can’t be wrong.” I sent out a bunch of emails to women without joining the site and made a “deal” with God, that if the one who had written, “Do not contact me unless you believe in all of the teachings of the Church,” replied, then I would pay to join the site because it would probably be a “God thing.”

She was actually the only one to reply which I took as a probable sign so I joined. We courted for a couple of years and were married in January of ’09. Now Sophia and I are in our second year of marriage and both of us could not imagine being happier had we married anyone else. We have helped one another on our individual spiritual journeys before marriage and, by the grace of the Sacrament, we are helping one another in our joint vocation now. Thank you so much CatholicSingles.com for all of the joy you have brought us!

Sincerely,

Thomas

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

I met Joe online 2 years ago via CatholicSingles.com. We had been talking via internet chat, and on the phone long distance all that time. We are getting married in the parish I work at on January 1st 2011. We are so happy and feel so blessed to have found each other.

Thanks Catholic Singles, for bringing Joe and I together.

Clare & Joseph

Question: What do you call two adults who each attended 12 years of Catholic school, who both had a knack for running track in high school, and who always looked forward to their families’ tradition of making tamales each Christmas? Answer: A true CatholicSingles.com match! In 2004, these similarities are what initially connected Kurt Schwartz and Alyssia Alaniz when they met via CatholicSingles.com. After a three-year courtship, they married at Corpus Christi Church on July 7, 2007, and immediately started a family in 2008. Catholicsingles.com brought them together, and their shared Catholic traditions, morals and values have kept them together for the past six years. They continue to share their faith with their two boys, Zachary, age 3 and Gabriel, age 1, and they look forward to the day when they will share the story with them about how they met. Kurt and Alyssia Schwartz

Dear CatholicSingles.com,

Lauren and I were married last summer on July 17, 2010 and are now preparing to celebrate our one year anniversary. When we first started talking Lauren was living in Dallas, TX and I was living in Salem, OR. It did not take long for us to make a connection and within a few months we started traveling back and forth to meet each other in person and each others families. After about 8 or 9 months we got engaged. We now live in Salem, OR where we both teach high school. All is well and we thank God for bringing us together.

Joe and Lauren

So here we are 13 years later! Susana and I we’d in August 2004 and have been happily married ever since. Last night we were laughing about the “good old days” and Catholic Singles was at the forefront of our memories. My goodness, a lot has happened since 2002. A lifetime of memories, love and devotion. We can’t thank you enough for bringing us together. God bless one and all!

Jeff & Susana

We just wanted to thank you. We got married on April 11, 2015 after meeting on CatholicSingles.com!

Best Regards – Simone and Matt

We met in August 2013 after a few messages on Catholic Singles. From our first date, we were comfortable talking about everything from faith to football. On our second date, before going sailing, we started our day with mass together. Although our lives took very different paths previous to meeting, we have always relied on our faith for answers in our relationship. On a trip to New York City in December, 2013, Joe proposed marriage. We were married on August 8, 2015, exactly two years after our first date. Our faith, and much laughter, has been central throughout our relationship and we are so thankful that God brought us together!

We pray nightly for all those seeking love and hope others find a lifelong relationship through CatholicSingles.com! – Joe and Martha

I just wanted to inform you about (another) marriage through your organization! We met for the first time in person 2 1/2 months after our initial meeting on this internet site and immediately knew we wanted to get married. We have logged numerous phone hours, written boxfuls of e-mails to each other, and spent extended periods of time with each other on 3 separate occasions. We thank you for this wonderful opportunity and credit not only this site but God for bringing us together.
 – Mary, IL

Dear CatholicSingles.COM, I have met a wonderful man on the site. We have been corresponding by way of email, phone, chat and quite a few visits in person. Needless to say, I feel it is necessary to cancel my membership because last Friday, June 21, 2000, he asked me to marry him! And of course I said yes! We will be getting married in October. He is a very caring, warm, beautiful person (inside and out) and he is a very devout Catholic. These are the qualities that I have been looking for in a man my whole life. I am so grateful for this site, because without it, I would have never met him. I had virtually given up on ever meeting someone I could be compatible with, much less marry someday. So, for what is worth…here is some advice for everyone who is searching for that “special someone”. Just stay close to God, and try not to think too much about finding someone, if it is meant to happen, it will..and most likely when you least expect it! My prayers are with you all!
 And once again, thank you Catholicsingles.COM! – Dawn

We just wanted to thank you for providing you services. We were both looking for someone who shared our faith. We both knew early on that we had found our soulmates. Despite the distance in miles (Nebraska and Michigan) we wrote, we phoned, we met and are now engaged to be married on December.
 Thank you! – Cynthia and Martin

I thank CatholicSingles.COM & the Lord for this site. I have been dating someone for a few months that I met through this site! As a matter of fact, he happened to be one the first persons that I contacted.
 Thank you & God bless all who make this site possible. – Sandi

To everyone who keeps Catholic Singles going: I just want to thank you for being there. After years of praying for that special person I’ve finally found him. I found your site quite by accident, signed up, and within two weeks meet the man that God had chosen for me. Your site gave me the opportunity to really come to know him before we met. Things have gone very well since we met. I finally found a man who shares my faith and values. Someone to walk with me towards God.
 I thank God for Catholic Singles. – Christina

I met someone through this site — and it turns out she also goes to my church! She’s been going there nine years, under my nose all this time! But we never met, so I am very grateful to the site for linking us together. We’ve been dating for three months, and we really seems to have clicked.
 Thanks again. – Bob

Thanks so much for providing this site, you have led me to the most beautiful woman I have ever met and alot of other beautiful women also. But I only need the one and all in three weeks! thanks so much.
 – Michael

Thank you for providing such a valuable service. It took a little while, but I have met someone very special through this site that I NEVER would have met before. We keep talking about the future, so I believe we are going to get married in the long term.
 – Kelly

I sent emails to a few other members and received some from a few others. Nothing ‘ clicked ‘ at first. Then in early September I received an email from (someone) in southern California. That’s a great deal more than 50 miles from the Detroit area where I live. I answered because she seemed quite interesting. We began to correspond via email outside of Catholic Singles. It was grand. A month later we met for dinner during a business trip I made to Orange County. We had a swell time. The relationship has progressed extremely well. We became engaged over the Christmas holidays and plan to marry this year. We began our journey on the Catholic Singles web site and will be eternally grateful that you made it possible.
 God is blessing our relationship and we praise Him. – Chuck

Happy New Year to all at Catholic Singles! I would like to share with you that I have met someone through your service network. Nancy and I are now courting and are laying the foundation to be married. Distance presents no barrier to the power of Love! 
 Praise the Lord! – Luke

My fiance & I met on CatholicsSingles.com earlier this year. We are now in the final stages of our wedding plans. We are getting married on November 25, 2000 . We are very thankful for the opportunity that this site gave us to met one another. We truly believe that God has brought us together & have never been happier.
 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU – Lori & Joe

I thought that you would like to know that I have found a very special man on your web site. We have been chatting for almost three months but I feel like I have known him for a very long time. He lives several states away so we have only actually seen each other twice but we talk daily either on line or on the computer. It is wonderful to be able to go to a site and find someone who is of the same belief and faith as you are. We feel like God put us together — we met in the chat room. We don’t know yet exactly where this will lead but we are very excited at the prospects. Thanks you so much for your web site — I will forever be grateful to this site. If our relationship continues to grow (as I hope and pray that it will) we will be sure and let you know — I would love to be one of your success stories.
 May God Bless You – Pat

“I am requesting that my membership on Catholic Singles.com be cancelled. It is not that I am unhappy with your service – quite the contrary – I am thrilled with what it has done for me. I have met a wonderful man that I am interested in dating exclusively. We have been corresponding for a few months now and he has visited me. We really hit it off and I plan on making a trip out to visit him soon. Thanks to your service, I have found someone who not only shares my faith, but has everything I am looking for in a lifelong partner. We have hopes that our relationship will grow and that we can live a wonderful Catholic existence together , God willing. Thank you for providing such a wonderful service and we’ll be sure to keep you posted.
 God Bless – Anonymous

Dear CatholicSingles: Kathy and I never would have met if it wasn’t for your service, since we were 650 miles apart (Chicago and northern Minnesota). Well, things have progressed very, very well. We put our trust in the Lord and our Blessed Mother to find a way around all the obstacles in our path. Within three weeks of sending out the first resume, Kathy had landed a new job in Chicago that was also a HUGE promotion. The apartment search led us to a building owned by a man of strong Catholic faith, who rented her a two-bedroom apartment for less than many of the one-bedroom placed we had looked at. To make a long story short, Kathy and I will be married on September 8, the feast of the Blessed Mother’s birth. We had both virtually given up on finding a partner who shared our Catholic values and faith in God, and then God used your service as the vehicle to bring us together. There can be no doubt that God’s will is being done here, in our lives as well as many others through your work. Our prayers are with all of you who seek the happiness we have found.
God bless you all, – Harold and Kathy

I was a member for about 6 months and met a lot of wonderful people. In June of 1999 a special man answered my ad. We wrote often and learned about each other. We met face to face in Oct. 1999. We lived a four hour drive from each other. He made the drive every other weekend. We became engaged in March of 2000. We got married on Dec. 28, 2000. I cannot thank you enough. I had given up on finding a Catholic Man. I found a wonderful man who truly walks with God and believes the teachings of the church. I never thought I would be admitting to people that I met someone on-line. I felt safe and because I placed my trust in God I found you and you led me to the love of my life. Family members constantly tell us that we have never looked better. Funny what Love and following God does for people.
 Thank you – Lorie

I am a true testimate that your site really works! My cousin told me to join CatholicSingles.com back in August and I met my future husband 3 weeks later after being browsed over 3000 times. He is from Maryland and I am from NJ and know we would have never met had it not been for your site! We are planning on getting married next year and Thank God and your site for enabling us to meet. I would highly recommend your site to anyone.
 – Very Happy in N J

“Thank you for your service. I have met someone through your service and have started seeing him. I want to thank you for providing catholicsingles.com….I’d just about given up on meeting ‘eligible’ Catholic men.”
 – Catherine, FL

Unbelievably, within days of posting my ad on CatholicSingles.com, I met the LOVE of my LIFE! THANK YOU so very MUCH!!!
 – Anna

God was using your website to connect me with someone He had in mind. I already had given up control of that situation to Him.When I responded to her note, that started a two-week revelation of who we are — one to the other. We knew that God had paired a perfect match. We have been unable to find anything in our personalities, ancestry, character, morals or principles, nothing that is not a perfect match. Nine days after our first letter, we were deeply in love, and I know when we meet in person the chemistry will be there to sustain a lifelong marriage relationship. Remember: Nothing is impossible with God.
 Thank you CatholicSingles.COM for this success story. – Jim, TN

I have met the most wonderful man through your service! We met in person for the first time one week ago, and we have decided to pursue a serious relationship. We truly believe that God has introduced us for a very special reason – I can’t thank you enough for this service. Your service has acted as an instrument of His peace, uniting the two of us. Thank you so much! May God bless everyone of you!Catherine, NY

Thanks so much for the site- I am very grateful to have met Jim. My roommate and I have been on the site since the beginning of the month and have had so much fun with it!
 Take Care and God Bless! – Melanie, TX

I have come into contact with a nice lady from your service and appreciate your site. It is a great outlet for young Catholic singles.
 – Thomas, GB

I never thought I would be writing to share this news! Ed and I met on this site, met in person and are planning a future together.
 – Kathy, TX

The reason I am canceling is because I met somebody wonderful on your service. Thank you very much and keep up the good work!
 – Patrick, NY

I have found someone through this site, someone with a beautiful heart and a wonderful personality. Thank you very kindly for offering this opportunity through CatholicSingles.COM!
 – Teresa, TX

I am canceling because I have met a wonderful man through CatholicSingles.COM. We have been emailing back and forth every day, speak on the phone often, and we had the privilege of meeting recently. We have decided to pursue the relationship further, and see where the Lord leads us. I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to meet quality Catholics from all over who are committed to the Lord, and seeking others of the same mindset.
 – Pamela, WA

I have thoroughly enjoyed this service and wish to cancel because I have met a wonderful man through this service! I pray for the success of other members and thank you for this opportunity to connect with other single Catholic adults.
 – Mary, MO

I just wanted to thank you for providing this service. I had given up on finding a good, Catholic man with whom to share my life and be a Catholic role model in my childrens’ lives. However, through Catholic Singles, I have found that person, and we will be married in March. I thank God for guiding me in finding someone of my faith, and Catholic Singles was the tool He used to answer my prayers!!
 – Christine, FL

Thanks again for introducing me to my lovely wife.
 – Brian, CO

I cancelled my membership about 2 weeks ago because I met someone through this website. We have been seeing each other about 4 weeks now and things are going great. We both believe that God brought us together and we have talked seriously about our future together. Thank you for this site and I have recommended this to many friends who can’t believe how Chris and I met and how great things are going for us. I will keep in touch to let you know how things are going. Thanks again, and as in previous testimonials, I will pray for everyone on the site, that they find what they are looking for.

I met somebody wonderful on your service. Thank you very much and keep up the good work!

..the reason why I’m writing is to tell you I am currently engaged…I guess I’d never be able to thank God (and catholicsingles.com) enough! What a concept and what a great way to finding someone who shares the same values, love for God and overall commitments to the faith!
 – Vera, NY

Through your service, I met the person I’ve been waiting for my entire life. I will definitely recommend it to my friends! Thank you very much and keep it up!
 – Terri, CA

.Thanks for the service that you are providing. I wish to cancel my account, because I have met a spirit-filled, handsome man through your service. I wasn’t sure if I would meet someone who would share the same orthodox Catholic views that I share AND that I would be attracted to. We met, we feel drawn to each other, and we believe that it’s God’s will that we be together to see how it evolves.
Thanks and God Bless You for your service. – Victoria, CA

Dear Catholicsingles.com, Around the first of June, I signed up on your website. Another member and I emailed each other a couple of times and since that time, we have met and have spent every day together since. Today, I’m writing to tell you that I believe we were meant for each other. I truly feel as if I have found the one that God has planned for me. So, I’m writing to you to tell you thank you for the opportunity to meet such a devoted, loving, kind Catholic man. I feel truly blessed and so does he.
 Thank you again. In God’s name – Terri

I would like to thank you for your service. My fiance and I met each other through CatholicSingles.com. We both had been dating around unable to find the ONE. I was ready to give up on dating. However, we met through your site, began e-mailing, then met, dated for 6 months and recently got engaged. It truly is a match made in heaven and it never would have happened without CatholicSingles.COM.

 God Bless and thank you again.

Dear Guys: Thanks so much for providing this site, you have led me to the most beautiful woman I have ever met and alot of other beautiful women also. But I only need the one!
 Thanks so much – Dr. Michael

You folks provide a wonderful service. I have met someone very special through this service. It has been a God send to my life. Often times in small rural communities it is difficult to meet people of similar faith and values. Catholic Singles has enabled me to reach out and meet some very nice people. Now that I have met that special one.. (he too was a Catholic Single) I am unsubscribing. I will miss the folks in the chat room, and would love to someday go to a reunion on the West Coast. Thanks for the opportunity to reach out and find someone. My advice to others is to hang in there, as unbelievable as it may sound, God has someone picked out for you. Just be patient and keep praying. Keep the Faith,
 – Hak

Hi there, I wanted to let you know that I had met someone very special through your service. I wanted to thank you very much for providing the service that you do; it’s much needed in today’s world. I appreciate the environment you’ve created for godly catholic singles.
 Again, thank you and God bless. – Andy

Last September, 2000, I met a wonderful man from this site, and as of 9/14/2001 we are engaged. I am a widowed mother, and he is the best thing that has happened to me and my son. Our mutual devotion to the Catholic Church has been a solid foundation for our relationship, and will continue to be throughout our marriage. We are getting married May 18th, 2002!!! Thank you for providing this important venue for Catholics to come together. I have referred several people to this site, and will continue to do so!
 Thanks again, and God Bless you all – Michelle

Thank you so much for this wonderful Catholic site. I (recently) married my husband whom I met through Catholic singles.
 Thanks again and God Bless You – Ingrid

I have been fortunate to meet someone through your site!!!! Thank you! We both had almost given up on meeting anyone, anywhere! We were blessed to connect through your website and we are making plans to get married next year! I have recommended your site to several friends who have been frustrated trying to find someone special in their life. Again, Thank You very much!
 God Bless. – Brenda

I will always be thankful to your site for introducing me to the man of my dreams. The Holy Spirit used your service to bring us together, and I am amazed and delighted. Thank you for having this available – it is a blessing.
 God bless you. – Carolyn

..it’s just that through your service, I have met the most wonderful and devout Catholic that I could ever hope to be blessed with. Thank you so much for your service.
 – Victoria, CA

Thank you so much for the use of your site. After weeks of e-mails and telephone calls, I met up with a woman last weekend and it was fantastic. We’ll be seeing each other again this weekend, and we’re both hoping that things turn out well.
 God bless you all – Greg

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your wonderful service. I had been looking for that special someone for years and just stumbled onto your website by chance. I “surfed” for a few months, met a few nice guys and then I met Lawrence. We exchanged one note, called and decided to meet, and after a few weeks were engaged. We just clicked!!!!! We are now getting married on June 1st. I just wanted to let you know how happy I am and how I would refer this service to anyone!!! God Bless you and the service you provide.
 God Bless you and the service you provide. – Laura

Thank you so much for helping me find the woman that I plan on spending the rest of my life with.
 – James

Catholic Singles, I want to thank you from the bottom of my HEART for your site! I’ve been a member of your site off and on for a couple of years. I’ve sent many e-mails and have had many sent to me, but if through the Lord’s right timing I’ve seem to have met “my” soulmate. We’ve only known each other for a few weeks now, but something seems so “right”! We will definitely keep you up on our future status.Rick
Thanks again for this – Rick

I meet someone and we have been e-mailing starting September and then talked on the phone then started going out and I only date one person at a time and receiving e-mails from other people looking for someone would not be honest so I need to become inactive. This is a great web site.
 All the best to everyone and God Bless – Ron

I met the most wonderful person on this site and we are currently planning our wedding! I would never have met him if it weren’t for this site! And, to add to the good news, one of my friends also met someone on this site the week before I met my boyfriend–my friend is now engaged! Thanks again guys!!
 God bless! – Allison

Thank you so very much. I have been divorced for over five years now and I have had no luck what so every in finding that special someone on my own. Until I found Catholic Singles.I have met the most beautiful lady from this sight. I can’t thank you enough.
 God bless – Roger

Yes, It is true, met a great guy on this site… and we have been dating for over a year! So it is time to cancel my account for now.
 Thanks a million! – Barbara

I found a young woman in my area through your site who seems to be perfect for me.
 Thanks – Shane

I met someone special through your web site. Thank you for setting up this web site. I really appreciate it.

Shaun

I met the most wonderful guy ….thank you CatholicSingles.com!

Victoria

I found someone very special on your site. I spoke with a few others so I see (quality Catholics) here. Mine is another success story, a gift from God, through this wonderful ministry of yours.

Thank You – Brian

Your service helped me find avery special person.

Thank you – Michael

I wanted to quickly respond as a former member- user name patrick17- I met my wife to be through the network! We will be married on September 21st of this year!! Praise God! Thank you for providing a place for Catholics to meet and share common beliefs. It worked for us! Pray for our success!

Sincerely, – Patrick

I’d been meaning to get in touch w/ you about how successful the Catholicsingles.com experience has been to me. I met John w/ your help (and God’s of course:) and we married this past March 15th. His brother met his fiance on the network as well and they’re getting married June 16th. I’ve told people we should be your poster children. Thank you for putting like-minded Christian Catholics together when shots in the dark to find Mr. or Mrs. Right just weren’t working.

God bless – Linda Sue

Dear CS: I was married to the very first epal contacted thru CS in early January-quite a surprise and very fortuitous event. We met in Florida while each visiting relatives there and it became love at first sight. We were married civilly in Reno and plan a church wedding in her home town in about a year. Keep up the good work, and I am certain that the vast majority of your subscribers are happily satisfied as Elena and I are.

– Dennis

I need to say thank you and GOD BLESS YOU for what you are doing! In January of 2001 I met the love of my life on your site. We recently got engaged and are planning an August wedding in the church where I grew up. I thank GOD for him every day and to think I never would have met him if I hadn’t been for Catholic Singles.com. There is someone for everyone and I found my someone here!!!!

– Krista- CA

I met a fabulous guy on this site the day after I joined. We’ve become very close and are dating as of Thanksgiving when we met in person. Thank you for this opportunity to meet the man of my dreams.

God Bless! – Cathrine

I cannot thank you enough for providing me with the format in which I was able to meet someone very special. I would like to keep in touch with you and let you know what happens.

Thank you again. – Dave

I met Don through your service. From the very beginning, he was different from anyone I had talked with. We knew we loved each other even before we met. When we finally did meet, it was like coming home again. I couldn’t believe how easy he was to be with nor how easy it was to love him. I am so grateful to your service because I would have never met Don had it not been for you. I truly believe that God has brought us together and we are so very grateful.

Thank you so much. – Rose

Dear CS.Com. I am writing to close my account with a warm and sincere thank you. Over the past many months I had started to give up hope that it was possible to meet someone who shared my commitment to our faith and was looking in the same direction as I am. Boy was I wrong. I have met a most marvelous woman in answer to all my prayers. Her smile lights my world. Her kindness and thoughtfulness defies description. I am now working overtime to be worthy of her as a partner as we embark on hopefully a future filled with the Spirit! Thank you so much because without you I don’t think this would have happened

– Oliver

Through the wonders of this website, a dear Sister in Christ reached all the way across the country to me (diagonally opposite corners) and invited me into her life. The ensuing weeks have seen an exchange of pictures, lots of e-mails and a goodly number of phone calls. We are planning a meeting in person in July. It is amazing to the both of us that we seem so well-suited to each other. Thanks to CatholicSingles.com, we feel well on the way to a partnership that can stand the test of time, blessed by Our Loving God and based on that same love that was shown to us through His Son. I can only say “Thank You” for this wonderful means of meeting someone. It has been an otherwise long and frustrating time finding such good, decent people using other means. This site was recommended by a friend in my parish (who is now married to the wonderful woman he met!!). I will certainly advise him of the outcome, and will heartily recommend this site to everyone.
Thank you again. Sincerely – Roger

I want to thank CS for bring the Love of my life to me – or me to her which ever the case my be. I posted a ad and had a response from a lady in California. She is a fantastic woman and someone whom I can not keep my eyes off of. We want to do everything together. I did not believe anyone like this was out there. I think we are put on this earth to find ‘that someone special’ and I can honestly tell you I found the one I have been searching for my whole life.

I want to say Thanks again to CS. – Ronald

Hello-Thanks for a great website! I met Dave last March. We corresponded,dated, fell in love, and became engaged June 10, 2001 (his proposal was very romantic and thoughtful–those of you who have ever visited Longwood Gardens near Kennett Square, PA know it’s the perfect spot for “I Do’s”). We are getting married on July 13, 2002 in New Jersey.

Best wishes to all of you! – Cheryl

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the staff of CS for all their efforts in providing such a fine service for Catholics who are seeking to develop new relationships in their lives. Your service is a most intelligent and professionally organized site, which I have enjoyed using since May 2002. In the past three months, I have had the opportunity to write and date several wonderful Catholic gentlemen, who are striving to live faith-filled lives. For the past 7 weeks, I have seeing a very special man named Chris, whose intelligence, sensitive kindness, humor, and growing faith have been a blessing and a joyful uplift in my life. For many years, it had seemed quite improbable that I would ever meet such a beautiful individual. It would never have happened without the avenue of CS, so I give you my heartfelt thanks!

God Bless you! – Mary Ellen

I’m sure to fall short of the best words to express my appreciation to CS.com for your well-organized and professionally managed website. As a direct result of your service, I’ve met an extraordinary, deeply devout Catholic woman, whose outer beauty is only surpassed by her inner strength, values and spirituality . Besides these qualities, Mary Ellen has a brilliant intellect and the heart of a child, with a passion for helping others like no one I’ve ever met. I’m fortunate to have met her and be exploring a future together with her. Thank you Catholic Singles.com…it just occurred to me that it must be fun and uplifting for you to read these testimonials that are in fact, the fruits of your labor.

– Chris

I just wanted to say thanks for helping to find my lifetime partner. I found her with the help of your service, and after dating for a almost two years, have decided to get married next May. I praise the Lord for your service and helping me to find the love of my life! I have enjoyed your service very much and wish you success in helping others do the very same thing.

Thanks again – Dave

Dear CatholicSingles: Kathy and I never would have met if it wasn’t for your service, since we were 650 miles apart (Chicago and northern Minnesota). Well, things have progressed very, very well. We put our trust in the Lord and our Blessed Mother to find a way around all the obstacles in our path. Within three weeks of sending out the first resume, Kathy had landed a new job in Chicago that was also a HUGE promotion. The apartment search led us to a building owned by a man of strong Catholic faith, who rented her a two-bedroom apartment for less than many of the one-bedroom placed we had looked at. To make a long story short, Kathy and I will be married on September 8, the feast of the Blessed Mother’s birth. We had both virtually given up on finding a partner who shared our Catholic values and faith in God, and then God used your service as the vehicle to bring us together. There can be no doubt that God’s will is being done here, in our lives as well as many others through your work. Our prayers are with all of you who seek the happiness we have found.
God bless you all, – Harold and Kathy

I met someone very special. Emily is the women of my dreams!!!
 – John

I am seeing a special man from your website and love him a lot! Thanks so much for providing this service.

Mary

Kevin and I met on your website about a year and a half ago. He was the first man I wrote to. Then I was flooded with over 200 different letters within a three month period. I found many very good Catholic men on this site who like myself take their faith seriously and are looking for a good catholic wife. I met several men who were quite serious about knowing me… Something about Kevin though…. We have decided to get married in October. I am not enthusiastic about dating services but this one has been a blessing. There are still a few of us who take our Faith so seriously that we want more than anything to find someone compatible in the Faith. This site is a means to make that possible. I believe you will find some very strong Catholic families coming from this service. Please keep on top of things to keep the site safe. I will write a formal testimonial of Kevin and my marriage as soon as we have made our vows with a picture of the two of us for your website. Another tidbit… My younger sister Sharon lost her first husband after only one year of marriage. She recently went on Catholicsingles.com wondering but but without much belief if God might find her a new Catholic husband. Her search was for a man anywhere in the U.S. She wished though in her heart to find someone in her own city. Guess what. A man wrote to her from your site who lives only two blocks from her house and who used to be a good friend of her deceased husband. He is a strong Catholic and of a character she was looking for. She also may soon be getting married.

God bless the site! – In Jesus, Dawn

God works in mysterious ways… I am dating a fantastic guy I wrote from your site for the last month or so. So, I am very thankful to you all for helping me find a great guy.

Trish

My Wife Sarah and I are coming up on your one year anniversary, and we owe our meeting in part to CatholicSingles.com. We are so grateful to God for having found your site, and then for finding each other.

God Bless – Chris & Sarah in Minnesota

I never thought I’d be writing to some Internet site to tell about the love of my life, but I am. Bernie was the first man I connected with on this site a year and a half ago and we are still together and strong. I truly believe God’s hand was in our meeting and continues to be in our relationship. Thank you for this site as it was the means for me to meet him.

Katherine

On May 25, 2002 my wife and I were married due to your service. She lives in another state and we would have never met without you.

Thank you – Raymond

Dear Catholic Singles, I am writing you to first and foremost to thank you for your services for myself and all other catholic singles. Due to your services and the grace of God I have met a wonderful man and we have decided to date more exclusively so I will no longer be taking advantage of your website and wish to discontinue my account after over a year of dedicated usage. I wish the best of luck to all your other members and hope they can find the same happiness that I have with your assistance.

Again, thank you and God bless. – Tina
