Terms and Conditions

Last updated: November 9, 2026

Welcome to 21st Century Catholic, published at 21stcenturycatholicevangelization.org by 21st Century Catholic Evangelization (“we”, “us”). By reading or using this website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

What this site is

This site is an independent lay apostolate that offers prayers, lives of the saints and explanations of the Catholic faith, free of charge. It is not an official publication of any diocese or of the Holy See. Prayers marked as original were written for this site. They are private devotions, not official liturgical texts.

Nothing here replaces the guidance of your priest, your bishop or the teaching of the Church. Our Editorial Policy explains how articles are written, including our use of AI writing tools, and how we correct mistakes.

Not professional advice

Our articles are for spiritual and general information only. They are not medical, psychological, legal or financial advice. Some pages offer prayers for illness, grief, money troubles or other hardships. Please see a qualified professional about those needs as well. If you or someone near you is in danger or in crisis, contact your local emergency services right away.

We make no promise about the result of any prayer or devotion. Pages that mention favors, healings or answered prayers describe Catholic tradition and hope, not a guaranteed outcome.

Accuracy

We work hard to be faithful and correct, but articles may contain errors or become out of date. Dates, Mass times, events and similar details can change, so please confirm anything important with your parish or diocese. If you find a mistake, please tell us and we will review it.

Using our content

The articles, original prayers and design of this site belong to us or to those who have licensed them to us. You are welcome to:

Read, print and share our prayers and articles for personal, family, parish or school use, free of charge
Quote a short passage, with a link back to the page it came from

Please do not republish whole articles on another website, sell our content, or copy it in bulk, including to train software, without our written permission.

Scripture, traditional prayers, Church documents, artworks and other works by third parties remain subject to the rights of their own owners, where any apply.

Your messages and comments

If you send us a message, a correction, a prayer intention or a comment, please do not include anything unlawful, offensive or private about another person. You allow us to use what you send in order to respond and to improve the site. We may edit or decline to publish comments. We will not publish your private messages without asking you first.

Advertising and affiliate links

The site is supported by advertising, including ads served by Google, and by affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. We may also earn commissions from The Catholic Company and other partners when you buy through a link, at no extra cost to you. These relationships never influence what we write.

Any purchase is strictly between you and the seller. We do not sell products ourselves and are not responsible for prices, availability, delivery, quality or refunds. Please also note that an advertisement appearing here is not an endorsement by us.

If you sign up for our weekly newsletter, we will send it to you by email using our email provider, Kit. You can unsubscribe at any time with the link at the bottom of every email.

Links to other websites

We link to other websites, including sources, videos and shops. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, their accuracy or how they handle your information.

Your privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use this site and what your rights are.

Acceptable use

Please do not misuse this site. That includes trying to break into or disrupt it, placing an unreasonable load on it with automated tools, or using it for anything unlawful.

Availability and limits of our responsibility

This site is offered free of charge and “as is”. We do not promise that it will always be available or free of errors, and we may change or remove any page at any time.

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or your reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms limits liability for intent or gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, or any other liability that cannot be limited by law. Nothing in these terms takes away the rights you have as a consumer under the mandatory laws of the country where you live.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows the latest version. If you keep using the site after a change, the updated terms apply to you.
