U.S. Catholic dioceses expect Easter surge in converts

Catholic churches are experiencing major spikes in attendance, the New York Times reported yesterday. For instance, this Easter, the archdiocese of Detroit expects to add 1,428 new members, a 20-year high; the archdiocese of Washington, D.C., expects to add 1,755 members, a 16-year high; the Galveston-Houston archdiocese expects a 15-year high, and Des Moines’s diocese attendance has already increased 51 percent. Expect Catholicism to become increasingly popular, as is prophesied in your Bible.
