Resources for Catholic Information
This list of Catholic websites and apps is a resource for English, Spanish and Polish speaking Catholics. It is for reference and information only. It consists of Catholic websites that have come to my attention in the course of my ministry or personal life. I have marked with an * those organizations that I have some experience or familiarity with; ** means I have extensive experience or familiarity with it. Feel free to contact me if you would like my view of any of these organizations.
Websites and apps were listed here because they appeared to represent legitimate Catholic organizations. I cannot attest to any quality or characteristic of these organizations such as their faithfulness to the Roman Catholic Magisterium, quality of their products and services, effectiveness and efficiency as an organization etc. However the websites are portals into the organizations and good starting points for researching them.
This list is not complete – there are many more providers of the ministries, products and services represented by each of the categories listed below.
If you know any Catholic websites or apps not listed here please send them to me at Info@JoyofHeaven.net and I would be glad to add them to the list. The list will be updated regularly and if you would like the updated version please contact me accordingly.
