Check out Fr Mike's Favorite Websites!
usccb.org -- U.S. Catholic Conference of Bishops. Contains Catholic updates, daily & Sunday readings, church documents, social justice issues & a marriage website
americancatholic.org -- Daily features including saint of the day, minute meditations, daily Catholic question, etc. Updates on faith, where you can put in an area of interest and find easy-to-read articles.  Also has a sight for free Catholic e-cards  (very well done).
uscatholic.org – one of my favorite sites.  Up-to-date information on the Catholic Church.  Easy to read and enter a search for a topic and find excellent articles. A fresh and up-beat understanding of being a Catholic.
networklobby.org – my favorite “lobbying group.”  This Catholic group works for justice and peace, educates, organizes and lobbies for economic and social transformation.  Great way to make your voice heard in Washington to bring about real change.
homefaith.org – great website for Catholic families.  Short articles, and you can subscribe to a “weekly wisdom” to help bring wise and witty support for parents. 
salt.claretianpubs.org  -- Catholic website dealing with social justice.  Great articles and brings awareness to issues of national and international interest.
creighton.edu/CollaborativeMinistry/online.htm – daily readings with reflections, on-line retreats, resource for prayers.  You can even pray the Stations of the Cross on-line.
