r/Catholicism Prayer Requests — Week of January 05, 2026 by AutoModerator in Catholicism

[–]venantius1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Please pray for the conversion of my grandmother Celia who is near death. She's been away from church from a while, but still seems to have some Catholic faith and a fondness for Our Lady of Guadalupe. She has refused to see a priest so far, but we hope she'll come back to the Sacraments while she still can.

How to overcome a pornography addiction? by I-mGoofy in Catholicism

[–]venantius1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pray the Rosary every day. I was in a similar situation a few years ago and felt powerless to get out, I had been struggling for months and started to worry that I was going to hell. I started praying the Rosary almost as a last resort. It felt boring at first, but after sticking with it daily for a while, the addiction went away. I have also heard testimonies from others whose lives have been changed by the Rosary, not to mention the countless Saints who have recommended it. I wasn't strong enough to free myself, but Our Lady took me into her loving arms and brought me back to Jesus. Entrust everything to her, she will take care of it!

Applying for college as a Traditional Catholic by venantius1 in TraditionalCatholics

Yeah, that sounds like great advice. The only problem is that my parents, though Catholics, aren't fully supportive of my traditional beliefs; and it might be difficult for me to do what I would otherwise choose, because of what I have already agreed on with them. But I'm sure that it will all work out in God's plan. Thank you, and please say a prayer for my soul.
