The reality that young people are leaving the Catholic faith and instead choosing to identify as non-religious at alarming rates represents a crisis for the Church but also an opportunity for parishes in the U.S. to discover and put in place innovative ways to attract and keep these young faithful and form them into disciples.

The quiet of the Adoration Chapel at St. Peter the Apostle Parish in Parsippany feels like a world away from the hustle and bustle of suburban life outside and away from daily troubles.

They sit or kneel with hands folded or read prayers or Scripture in silence. One woman listens to recited prayers on her iPhone through earbud headphones.Read More -
