New Catholics Find Faith in a Culture Where Belief Is Waning – EWTN UK
Posted: April 4, 2024 at 2:47 am
As we celebrate our Risen Lord, we welcome new Catholics into the fold.
As of last year, one-quarter of Americans (26%) identify as religiously unaffiliated, with Catholics suffering the largest decline among major religious groups a 10 percentage point loss overall, according to anew survey.
But that sad news is not the whole story, for we know the joy of faith.
Joy, when it is shared, grows. Let us share the joy of the Risen One, Pope Francisencourages us this Easter Octave.
And we have new Catholics among us.
As we celebrate our Risen Lord, we welcome all the new Catholics into the fold. Blessed to have you here!
Here are a few updates to inspiring stories of conversion we have covered as part of EWTN News:
Tammy Peterson, wife of Jordan Peterson, is now Catholic. Congratulations, and welcome, Tammy!
