This is amazing! I attend St. Thomas More growing up from childhood to adulthood. When I move to the Dallas area. St Francis of Assiss is the closest Church near me. And that's the church I attend now. So blesses to be a part of both huge Catholic communities.
Any Roman Catholic parish which resembles even in the slightest, a Protestant faith community is not truly Roman Catholic. We need to return to our true Catholic roots, and offer to God the extra ordinary form of the Holy Mass and step away from the ordinary form. God deserves an offering to Him in thanksgiving high solemn liturgies.

Jealous of the churches that have enough priests to hold daily masses. Many areas of the US have to share priests and those priests have to travel 80 plus miles daily to just touch base weekly with the parish. My church used to have daily mass and 3 masses on Sunday. We now share 3 priests for 6 parishes covering a radius of 100 miles. We get 3 weekly masses, confessions for one hour on Wednesday/ Saturday and two Sunday masses. For those blessed with enough priests to minister to your parish daily …cherish it
Wow! Thanks for the info. I didn’t know that some parishes are short of priests. I’m from DC metropolitan, we have 6 Sunday masses and 2 daily masses. I’m very appreciative of having dedicated priests here

St Luke Catholic Church in Smyrna Tn is a wonderful place to worship. When I am in TN I always go to this Church on a Saturday. Feel @home in Smyrna TN.
We have a lot of young families that go to mass at my church. They have many children too. It's a TLM. So glad we go to TLM, converts for 25 years now.

Wait a minute. One person complains about a 30,000 member church because it seems too Protestant? How many Protestant churches offer rosary making classes? God bless St. Matt’s.
Make that two persons. We left after 35 plus years (founding members) with the parish. Rosary making does not equal prayer life and orthodox Catholic teaching.
What was said about St. Matthew in Charlotte is all true. We left that parish 3 years ago... after being founding members 36 years prior. It simply is not Catholic enough. In addition, they don't have a pastor, only an administrator. We now belong to St. Ann Catholic Church in Charlotte... a wonderful orthodox parish. I pray for St. Matthew and hope the new Bishop (Martin) will finally install a pastor.

I attended Latin Mass once- only to leave it totally confused! The Choir was in the gallery doing its thing, The priest and his men were up in front doing their thing, And the people were in the pews quietly praying with seemingly little to no awareness, and not even caring of what else is going on around them! No sense of unity or community or communication between anything or any one! If the Mass is supposed to be the official public prayer of the Church, shouldn’t everybody be in unity with each other? Not only that, But even with the English translation in the missal, I couldn’t keep up with what was going on! What was I supposed to be one with exactly? What were they doing? I got no guide on it at all and no one was around or even willing to help me! The next day I attended a Mass at a Lithuanian cultural Center close to my home (I was living in Illinois at the time.) There, it was done in the Ordo Missae form (NOT “Novus Ordo”! It’s really “Ordo Missae” according to Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas). Everything was orderly, easy to follow along- the priest led, the people responded accordingly, there was unity and community involved throughout- and I don’t know a word of Lithuanian! Another thing- I have attended Byzantine, Maronite and Anglican Ordinariate Liturgies in the Catholic Belief. None of those who attend those liturgies on a regular basis even care how everyone else worships! But those that attend Tridentine Latin Mass regularly have this attitude of that liturgy is the only right one, everything else be condemned, especially “Ordo Missae”! That doesn’t sound very Christlike to me! I’ll never attend Tridentine Latin Mass again!
We had the TLM “traditional Latin mass“ at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Austin, Texas, and of ALL the masses offered. It was the most well attended. The bishop decided to terminate it and replace it with the ordinary mass. And because of this one action, he caused the termination of millions of dollars of funding to various Catholic institutions.
@@jeannehall6546 The TLM is known for being meditative and not for community hand shaking. Mass is supposed to be about God, not community. It is worship of God, after all. There is plenty of time outside of Mass for community. During Mass, we are united in faith and the Eucharist which is true Catholic unity. Unity is not about hand shaking or talking to our neighbor during Mass. The TLM draws thousands of young and old alike with full Mass attendance as well as young men filling the traditional seminaries and young women in traditional religious orders. I'm sorry that you didn't get it.
Jeanne. The Mass is primarily the worship of God the Father through the Sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. With that as a starting point you may have a little different perspective. And you are correct, it takes about 6 months to learn the "pattern" of the Latin Mass.
We would love to be included in this list. We average 150 new families a year, from just over 1600 families in 2016 to over 3000. We have Daily Mass M-Say, a Vigil mass on Saturday, and 4 Masses, including one in Spanish on Sunday. We also have Masses in Polish, Korean, and Tagalog. Our new Cathedral was dedicated in 2018.
@@davidstout6051 When I moved to Dallas in the 1980s an article came out in the newspaper about the great influx of Catholics moving to the Dallas area. There was a high school run by Cistercian monks whose baseball team was scheduled to play against a Baptist school. When the Baptists found out that their opponents were Catholic, they refused to play.
In the Philippines, it is common in every church to have Three (3) Masses a day from Monday to Saturday. with Nine (9) masses on Sunday. At popular shrines, they can have as many as twelve (12) masses on Sunday.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Carmel, IN has over 8,000 registered parishioners, 2 daily Masses and nine WE Masses. It has an adoration chapel and a Matthew 25 center with a food pantry and a health clinic.
@@julieCA58 YOU MIST LIVE IN AN AREA OF THE AR 15 CROWD IS NEW YORK CITY ENOUGH POPULATION FOR YOU, NATIONALLY THERE ARE ABOUT 19,000 CATHOLIC CHURCHES THE SMALLEST NUMBER ON OVER 50 YEARS PINHEAD!
Why isn't the Immaculata in St Marys Kansas mentioned? I believe the regulars alone add up to about 4,500. It's certainly the most impressive church building of the lot.
Possibly because of their Irregular status. I myself am a Novus Ordo Catholic and have no real issues with the SSPX. They nourish His flock and that's what matters most.
Protestant mega-church parish aside, these all appear to be great options for families. I prefer a smaller, more austere church and traditional liturgy in Latin, but these larger communities can provide a great experience as well. The parish I grew up in was just like these large parishes and I am the better for it.
Good for you, Latin Mass fans. There is a place for tradition. But what of the many churches that were forced by their diocese to merge with another church and then close?
Outside our failing old cities, churches are full because that is where the Catholics have moved. The numbers reflect the population, not the faithfulness of the parishioners.
These churches are located primarily in areas with growing populations and relatively high incomes. Of course, they’re going to have more congregants. As is true in real estate: location, location, location!
Large Parrishs have benefits to accommodate the size of parishioners Small Parrishs can cost more and shortage of priests But one must be careful with mega churches It comes under Pride , envy
So you're saying that just because a church is experiencing large growth and membership that it's a bad church??? That's not true at all. Usually a church grows because the leaders are staying true to God's word and are serving the people instead of themselves.
The sad part of all this is that I noticed some of the churches removed the Tabernacle from the Altar. Very disturbing OMHO. Comunion on hand is already a big abuse to Our Lord! Quantity became the main focus of the Bishops agendas. Doing so they lost the true faithfull, and gained the fake ones. That is not what Jesus want.
They all have that very Protestant vibe that was pointed out on the last one. Well, maybe not St. Patrick’s in NY. They were all either ugly, whitewashed function hall looking places or they resemble the bridge of a space ship in Star Trek. I bet there are a lot of altar girls, dozens of Extraordinary Ministers and cringy music at all these parishes.
I sometimes attended Holy Family in Orlando. I got laughed out of there for refusing to support some organizations it has there that are in question by the Church, or even not recognized by the Church- like Holy Cenacle and Tradition, Family and Property/TFP/America Needs Fatima- even with the evidence that they are not supported that I presented! I have not been back since and I have no intention to return anytime soon, if ever! So much for trying to present the Real Truth!
Why is there no review of the Traditional Latin Mass parishes? They may not have the absolute numbers, but priestly vocations are disproportionate. No 'kumbaya' music there. And don't make the mistake of confusing numbers, with holiness and fidelity. Not saying that the 10 reviewed are not. Just saying that Protestant mega churches fill football stadiums, but no Eucharist, just singing, dancing, and long sermons without clear doctrine. Numbers don't mean anything. As Abp Fulton Sheen said - on Good Friday the Catholic Church was down to 5 - Jesus, Mary, John and 2 other women. All the others had fled.
God is present at all Catholic Masses. Propaganda against women on the Altar by Latin Mass advocates is unhelpful. God wants us to grow and flourish like the seeds that fell on fertile soil.
Any Roman Catholic parish which resembles even in the slightest, a Protestant faith community is not truly Roman Catholic. We need to return to our true Catholic roots, and offer to God the extra ordinary form of the Holy Mass and step away from the ordinary form. God deserves an offering to Him in thanksgiving high solemn liturgies.
As I look at the pictures of the Catholic congregations in America, I see a predominance of grey or white hair!! Young people refuse to come to church once they leave the family nest. Sitting in a church, watching a ceremony for an hour, done by a priest is the key to the lock that keeps heaven shut to non Mass goers! Strictly from the Middle Ages and that is the problem why young people stop going to church! God is our Father and He love His children. He gives them life to help his or her brothers and sister. We don't earn His love! Ceremony, vestments, and scriptures are not more important to Jesus than people!!!
I think if its hard to hear the homily because of screaming children then this is not a good thing. Quantity does not trump quality. The church should be a place of peace where parishioners can enjoy the presence of the Lord not have to listen to someone elses children being allowed run amuck. Please parents, control your children when at mass. If they become unsettled take them outside until they're settled then bring them back inside. Disrupting the mass and especially the gospel and homily is unacceptable.
The correct title of the Christian denomination you document is: The Roman Catholic Church. “Catholic” means “Universal”. There are other churches in the world that use catholic in their title.
Many people don’t know that the name “Roman Catholic” was given to us by Protestants. But it has called itself the Catholic Church since St. Ignatius of Antioch. The name, Roman Catholic, is not the official name used by the Holy See, the central government of the Catholic Church in Vatican City. There it is called, the Church or the Catholic Church. If you go to Wikipedia, e.g., you will find it under, Catholic Church. The Roman term finds its origins in the 17th Century by members of the Church of England who also called it the Romish Church, Popist Church and called Catholics, papists. There are 24 autonomous churches in communion with the pope. There is the Roman Rite - Catholics in the Western World and the Eastern Rite - Catholics in Eastern churches who follow their own religious heritage traditions such as Maronite Catholics (many in Lebanon), Ukrainian Catholics and Chaldean Catholics (Middle East, Michigan). By 2050, 75% of Catholics will live outside the west.
Noisy children especially during the sacred parts of the Mass, i.e. the Consecration, are very off-putting! The pstents should take them outside to quieten them down, but more than that, they should train them in advance. When I was a child, we would not look sideways, let alone wander around or crying non-stop. We knew better! The parents are to blame, not the children.
OMG I'm French Canadian, I'm really sorry for the architecture of your churches. I will pray for you really. None of these churches would be name a church for us (excepte te one in NY). These all look like protestant churches for us. We are closing churches 10 times better looking then these. The smallest church here look better then those. We have warehouse full of statues of saints and other things. Come get some, please. My God how can you pray in these? They look like airport waiting room. I know that God is everywhere , but you are making sacrements in those ? That is a sin. I am sorry I saw this video, I'm disturbed by it.
Crying and screaming babies that's a beautiful sound what's wrong with people they are all against abortion but don't want to hear the cry of babies . So what if they can't hear I'm 66 I'm legally deaf I go to church and don't complain should I tell them to turn the volume up lol people have lost their minds ..
That’s why I go to the traditional Latin mass. definitely will not have any women on the altar: no altar girls, no EMHC and definitely no female readers because the priest or transitional deacon read the epistle and gospel. also my diocese does not allow altar girls and the diocesan seminary, which is a four-year seminary, is full.
The videos don't necessarily represent the actual locations. I'vs seen this before places I know and whats on the screen is another place. They pay for libraries of content abd use images to compliment dialogue. Not to necessarily all literal.
And,remember Pope Francis condemnation of the genocide of the Palestinians. It is not antisemetic to protest the genocide. If someone condenms this, they are acting Anti Catholic. is
And,remember Pope Francis saying nothing about the genocide attacks by Hamas that the Palestinians VOTED for. It is anti-Semitic to protect the gynocidal actions of Palestine and it's love for Hamas..
DO NOT READ OUT LOUD IF YOU'RE CATHOLIC. I as an ex-Catholic, hereby declare that I have committed the act of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. I firmly state that I believe the Holy Spirit that Jesus talked about in the Bible stories to be nothing more than a demon. As a result, I acknowledge that I can never return to the Catholic Church through the sacrament of confession. From this day forward, if I attempt to go to confession to confess my sins in the Catholic Church, I recognize that I will only be confessing to a demon, for I have declared that the Holy Spirit is nothing more than a demon. This declaration is made of my own free will and is final.
The Church survives because she is founded by Christ and guided by the Holy Spirit. Low attendance or high attendance, that reality does not and will never change.
In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious,the Most Merciful. Peace be upon he who follows the truth.

Romans 3:22 KJV “even the righteousness of GOD which is by faith of JESUS CHRIST unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD; 24 being justified freely by HIS grace (free gift) through the redemption that is in CHRIST JESUS: 25 Whom GOD has set forth to be a propitiation (CHRIST crucified for the forgiveness of all sin satisfying the penalty for sin which is death for us in our place) through faith in HIS blood, to declare HIS righteousness for the remission of sins that are past (all sin is forgiven and in the past), through the forbearance of GOD; 27 Where is boasting then (relying on your own works to earn/deserve salvation)? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No: but by the Law of Faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law (works)."
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
@@jeffreyrodrigoecheverria2613 James is absolutely right. A saving faith will have works as evidence of that faith. The cause is GOD's Grace through faith and the effect is works but you switch it around and want to make the effect the cause. Absolutely wrong. If you want to justify yourself before GOD by works then you must present to HIM sinless perfection your entire life. If you cannot do that then death in hell are your wages. Matthew 9:2 KJV “And behold, they brought to HIM a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and JESUS seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; your sins be forgiven thee.” Matthew 9:22 KJV “But Jesus turned HIM about, and when HE saw her, HE said, Daughter, be of good comfort; your faith has made you whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.” Matthew 9:29 KJV “Then HE touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. Matthew 15:28 KJV “Then JESUS answered and said unto her, O woman, great is your faith: be it unto you even as you will. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.” Mark 2:5 KJV “When JESUS saw their faith, HE said unto the sick of the palsy, son, your sins be forgiven you.” Mark 5:34 KJV “And HE said unto her, daughter, your faith has made you whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague. Mark 10:52 KJV “And JESUS said unto him, go your way; your faith has made you whole. And immediately he received his sight and followed JESUS in the way. Luke 5:20 JKV "And when HE (CHRIST) saw their faith, HE said unto him, Man, your sins are forgiven you." Luke 7:50 KJV "And HE (CHRIST) said to the woman, your faith has saved you; go in peace." Luke 8:48 KJV "And HE (CHRIST) said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: your faith has made you whole; go in peace." Luke 17:19 KJV "And HE (CHRIST) said unto him, Arise, go your way: your faith has made you whole." Luke 18:42 KJV "And JESUS said unto him, Receive your sight: your faith has saved you."
@@jacktracy8356 who said you can't have works that leads to faith, like a protestant, you are adding your own doctrine to justify your heretical nonsense
you mean, churches that have liturgical dancing, EMHCs wearing T-shirts and shorts while the priest just sits there while other people distribute the Eucharist? where priests talk more about climate change in their homilies than saving your soul with going to confession regularly?
Those parishioners who complain about the noise from children during mass, are very short sighted. They are the churches future.
I remember several years ago there was an old man that was complaining to the parish priest that there were too many children talking and crying and that is was "very distracting." Father didn't miss a beat, he said, "I have a feeling that most of your distractions are internal."

I'm feeling really motivated. Could you share some details about the bi-weekly topic you brought up?
Thanks to my co-worker whom God used to give a great opportunity of crossing paths with 'Mrs MARY MARGARET SCHIMWEG".
Wow 😱 I know her too! Miss Mary Margaret Schimweg is a remarkable individual whom has brought immense positivity and inspiration into my life.
I got started with a miserly $1500. The results have been mind blowing I must say TBH!!

St Luke Catholic Church in Smyrna Tn is a wonderful place to worship. When I am in TN I always go to this Church on a Saturday. Feel @home in Smyrna TN.
A lot in the South God bless them
My parish church is full. We have bench seating on the sides and they are full too.
We have a lot of young families that go to mass at my church. They have many children too. It's a TLM. So glad we go to TLM, converts for 25 years now.

Wait a minute. One person complains about a 30,000 member church because it seems too Protestant? How many Protestant churches offer rosary making classes? God bless St. Matt’s.
@@davidstout6051 no.. He used Greek to preach the gospel Aramaic was his Nazareth language
@@viviandasilva8520 As a matter of fact Aramaic is the language that Jesus spoke!
Make that two persons. We left after 35 plus years (founding members) with the parish. Rosary making does not equal prayer life and orthodox Catholic teaching.
You mean seems too Biblical Christian. Protestant is an unflattering old fashioned almost slur. No Bible believer uses that ilk term.
@@scott4600 Christian churches you mean.
East Los Angeles has some really great churches that are packed too.
What was said about St. Matthew in Charlotte is all true. We left that parish 3 years ago... after being founding members 36 years prior. It simply is not Catholic enough. In addition, they don't have a pastor, only an administrator. We now belong to St. Ann Catholic Church in Charlotte... a wonderful orthodox parish. I pray for St. Matthew and hope the new Bishop (Martin) will finally install a pastor.

It is sad that none of the featured churches offered the Mass of All Ages. Attend the Latin Mass.
I attended Latin Mass once- only to leave it totally confused! The Choir was in the gallery doing its thing, The priest and his men were up in front doing their thing, And the people were in the pews quietly praying with seemingly little to no awareness, and not even caring of what else is going on around them! No sense of unity or community or communication between
anything or any one! If the Mass is supposed to be the official public prayer of the Church, shouldn’t everybody be in unity with each other?
Not only that, But even with the English translation in the missal, I couldn’t keep up with what was going on! What was I supposed to be one with exactly? What were they doing? I got no guide on it at all and no one was around or even willing to help me!
The next day I attended a Mass at a Lithuanian cultural Center close to my home (I was living in Illinois at the time.) There, it was done in the Ordo Missae form (NOT “Novus Ordo”! It’s really “Ordo Missae” according to Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas). Everything was orderly, easy to follow along- the priest led, the people responded accordingly, there was unity and community involved throughout- and I don’t know a word of Lithuanian!
Another thing- I have attended Byzantine, Maronite and Anglican Ordinariate Liturgies in the Catholic Belief. None of those who attend those liturgies on a regular basis even care how everyone else worships! But those that attend Tridentine Latin Mass regularly have this attitude of that liturgy is the only right one, everything else be condemned, especially “Ordo Missae”! That doesn’t sound very Christlike to me!
I’ll never attend Tridentine Latin Mass again!
We had the TLM “traditional Latin mass“ at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Austin, Texas, and of ALL the masses offered. It was the most well attended. The bishop decided to terminate it and replace it with the ordinary mass. And because of this one action, he caused the termination of millions of dollars of funding to various Catholic institutions.
@@jeannehall6546 The TLM is known for being meditative and not for community hand shaking. Mass is supposed to be about God, not community. It is worship of God, after all. There is plenty of time outside of Mass for community. During Mass, we are united in faith and the Eucharist which is true Catholic unity. Unity is not about hand shaking or talking to our neighbor during Mass. The TLM draws thousands of young and old alike with full Mass attendance as well as young men filling the traditional seminaries and young women in traditional religious orders. I'm sorry that you didn't get it.
@@jeannehall6546 did you know that the pew would’ve had a red book so you could fall along with most of the prayers?
Jeanne. The Mass is primarily the worship of God the Father through the Sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. With that as a starting point you may have a little different perspective. And you are correct, it takes about 6 months to learn the "pattern" of the Latin Mass.
St Gregory the Great Bluffton SC. Amazing, growing, and spiritual. 3 daily masses, at least 8 weekend masses. great priests and active ministries
I love our Lady of Peace, adoration 24/7 and masses late evening, great homilies and Holy Priests..Santa Clara calif.
We would love to be included in this list. We average 150 new families a year, from just over 1600 families in 2016 to over 3000. We have Daily Mass M-Say, a Vigil mass on Saturday, and 4 Masses, including one in Spanish on Sunday. We also have Masses in Polish, Korean, and Tagalog. Our new Cathedral was dedicated in 2018.

I usually think of Texas as Baptist territory. Clearly they have some competition. 😉
It depends what area in Texas
@@davidstout6051 When I moved to Dallas in the 1980s an article came out in the newspaper about the great influx of Catholics moving to the Dallas area. There was a high school run by Cistercian monks whose baseball team was scheduled to play against a Baptist school. When the Baptists found out that their opponents were Catholic, they refused to play.
@@darrellperez1029 Agreed, San Antonio is very Catholic as suggested by the name itself

In the Philippines, it is common in every church to have Three (3) Masses a day from Monday to Saturday. with Nine (9) masses on Sunday. At popular shrines, they can have as many as twelve (12) masses on Sunday.
@@GorCancio Philippines is a predominately Catholic country. We’re talking about the U.S.A. here.
This is amazing! Praise God! I wish that was common in the US
I enjoy attending a large megachurch; I find serving opportunities that use my particular talents, gifts, and abilities.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Carmel, IN has over 8,000 registered parishioners, 2 daily Masses and nine WE Masses. It has an adoration chapel and a Matthew 25 center with a food pantry and a health clinic.
SOUNDS GOOD HOWEVER HOW MANY CATHOLIC CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS HAVE CLOSED?
And how many have opened? My diocese seems to add a parish about every 15 years. It's all about population.
@@julieCA58 YOU MIST LIVE IN AN AREA OF THE AR 15 CROWD IS NEW YORK CITY ENOUGH POPULATION
FOR YOU, NATIONALLY THERE ARE ABOUT 19,000 CATHOLIC CHURCHES THE SMALLEST NUMBER ON OVER 50 YEARS PINHEAD!
In Queens Ny most churches on Sunday are attended only by few old people. No families with kids. It is sad to see that,.
Where is Saint Laurence Catholic Church in Sugarland Texas?
Why isn't the Immaculata in St Marys Kansas mentioned? I believe the regulars alone add up to about 4,500. It's certainly the most impressive church building of the lot.
Possibly because of their Irregular status. I myself am a Novus Ordo Catholic and have no real issues with the SSPX. They nourish His flock and that's what matters most.
❤Keep up the faith and keep God old and new commandments always ❤love and peace be with you all ❤
I prefer to attend Mass at a smaller church. I also listen to the Daily TV Mass from Toronto, Canada, on UA-cam.
Protestant mega-church parish aside, these all appear to be great options for families. I prefer a smaller, more austere church and traditional liturgy in Latin, but these larger communities can provide a great experience as well. The parish I grew up in was just like these large parishes and I am the better for it.
Amen alleluia
Good for you, Latin Mass fans. There is a place for tradition. But what of the many churches that were forced by their diocese to merge with another church and then close?
What does your church do to evangelize? Do you gave outreach to the community?
Outside our failing old cities, churches are full because that is where the Catholics have moved. The numbers reflect the population, not the faithfulness of the parishioners.
I really wanted to watch this, but the loud, awful music made it terrible.
These churches are located primarily in areas with growing populations and relatively high incomes. Of course, they’re going to have more congregants. As is true in real estate: location, location, location!
Large Parrishs have benefits to accommodate the size of parishioners Small Parrishs can cost more and shortage of priests
But one must be careful with mega churches It comes under Pride , envy
So you're saying that just because a church is experiencing large growth and membership that it's a bad church??? That's not true at all. Usually a church grows because the leaders are staying true to God's word and are serving the people instead of themselves.
What I see from these top ten, I believe 6 are in Texas!❤🙏
The sad part of all this is that I noticed some of the churches removed the Tabernacle from the Altar. Very disturbing OMHO. Comunion on hand is already a big abuse to Our Lord! Quantity became the main focus of the Bishops agendas. Doing so they lost the true faithfull, and gained the fake ones. That is not what Jesus want.
Hello! Your Baltimore numbers are misleading. The numbers you cite describe the City of Baltimore and not the entire archdiocese.
What accounts for the popularity?
They all have that very Protestant vibe that was pointed out on the last one. Well, maybe not St. Patrick’s in NY. They were all either ugly, whitewashed function hall looking places or they resemble the bridge of a space ship in Star Trek. I bet there are a lot of altar girls, dozens of Extraordinary Ministers and cringy music at all these parishes.
Many churches in Texas.
Because the religious still haven't met their burden.
Be careful if you thrive to much your priest might get a papal visit.
Did this survey deliberately avoid Latin Masses? How obvious...
I sometimes attended Holy Family in Orlando. I got laughed out of there for refusing to support some organizations it has there that are in question by the Church, or even not recognized by the Church- like Holy Cenacle and Tradition, Family and Property/TFP/America Needs Fatima- even with the evidence that they are not supported that I presented! I have not been back since and I have no intention to return anytime soon, if ever! So much for trying to present the Real Truth!
tradition, family and property (TFP) does a lot of protests, peaceful protests, praying the rosary.
How many of these parishioners have English as their native language?
Most of these are major metro areas... kind of deceiving. Look at smaller markets and see that the packed masses are the TLM.
Why is there no review of the Traditional Latin Mass parishes? They may not have the absolute numbers, but priestly vocations are disproportionate. No 'kumbaya' music there.
And don't make the mistake of confusing numbers, with holiness and fidelity. Not saying that the 10 reviewed are not. Just saying that Protestant mega churches fill football stadiums, but no Eucharist, just singing, dancing, and long sermons without clear doctrine. Numbers don't mean anything. As Abp Fulton Sheen said - on Good Friday the Catholic Church was down to 5 - Jesus, Mary, John and 2 other women. All the others had fled.
God is present at all Catholic Masses. Propaganda against women on the Altar by Latin Mass advocates is unhelpful. God wants us to grow and flourish like the seeds that fell on fertile soil.
Bah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
Any Roman Catholic parish which resembles even in the slightest, a Protestant faith community is not truly Roman Catholic. We need to return to our true Catholic roots, and offer to God the extra ordinary form of the Holy Mass and step away from the ordinary form. God deserves an offering to Him in thanksgiving high solemn liturgies.
As I look at the pictures of the Catholic congregations in America, I see a predominance of grey or white hair!!
Young people refuse to come to church once they leave the family nest.
Sitting in a church, watching a ceremony for an hour, done by a priest is the key to the lock that keeps heaven shut to non Mass goers!
Strictly from the Middle Ages and that is the problem why young people stop going to church!
God is our Father and He love His children. He gives them life to help his or her brothers and sister. We don't earn His love!
Ceremony, vestments, and scriptures are not more important to Jesus than people!!!
Vatican must replace novus ordo with anglican ordinariate rite
I think if its hard to hear the homily because of screaming children then this is not a good thing. Quantity does not trump quality. The church should be a place of peace where parishioners can enjoy the presence of the Lord not have to listen to someone elses children being allowed run amuck. Please parents, control your children when at mass. If they become unsettled take them outside until they're settled then bring them back inside. Disrupting the mass and especially the gospel and homily is unacceptable.
Surprised you didn't list st. Matthews in Charlotte, n.c. they are the largest populated church in the U.S.
Surprised you didn't watch the whole video...
Not anymore - it was passed two years ago by St. Charles Borromoe in Visalia, Calif.
The correct title of the Christian denomination you document is: The Roman Catholic Church. “Catholic” means “Universal”. There are other churches in the world that use catholic in their title.
Many people don’t know that the name “Roman Catholic” was given to us by Protestants. But it has called itself the Catholic Church since St. Ignatius of Antioch. The name, Roman Catholic, is not the official name used by the Holy See, the central government of the Catholic Church in Vatican City. There it is called, the Church or the Catholic Church. If you go to Wikipedia, e.g., you will find it under, Catholic Church. The Roman term finds its origins in the 17th Century by members of the Church of England who also called it the Romish Church, Popist Church and called Catholics, papists. There are 24 autonomous churches in communion with the pope. There is the Roman Rite - Catholics in the Western World and the Eastern Rite - Catholics in Eastern churches who follow their own religious heritage traditions such as Maronite Catholics (many in Lebanon), Ukrainian Catholics and Chaldean Catholics (Middle East, Michigan). By 2050, 75% of Catholics will live outside the west.
SSPX IS THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
Noisy children especially during the sacred parts of the Mass, i.e. the Consecration, are very off-putting! The pstents should take them outside to quieten them down, but more than that, they should train them in advance. When I was a child, we would not look sideways, let alone wander around or crying non-stop. We knew better! The parents are to blame, not the children.
God created human or human created god(s). The latter has all the evidences.
Don't forget about the other 2 crosses!!!!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome.
OMG I'm French Canadian, I'm really sorry for the architecture of your churches. I will pray for you really.
None of these churches would be name a church for us (excepte te one in NY). These all look like protestant churches for us.
We are closing churches 10 times better looking then these. The smallest church here look better then those.
We have warehouse full of statues of saints and other things. Come get some, please.
My God how can you pray in these? They look like airport waiting room.
I know that God is everywhere , but you are making sacrements in those ?
That is a sin.
I am sorry I saw this video, I'm disturbed by it.
The author knows nothing of the West Coast. Our parish has 9,000 households, five daily Masses, seven on Sunday plus Morning Prayer at 6 am.
What parish? Can’t get public figures on a lot of places.
Crying and screaming babies that's a beautiful sound what's wrong with people they are all against abortion but don't want to hear the cry of babies . So what if they can't hear I'm 66 I'm legally deaf I go to church and don't complain should I tell them to turn the volume up lol people have lost their minds ..
Most TLM Parishes are packed to the rafters!
Sorry! Nothing “Catholic” about your listing one on your list, as they clearly show girls as Alter boys- definitely heretical, not Catholic
Didn't notice it. Which one has a female priest?
That’s why I go to the traditional Latin mass. definitely will not have any women on the altar: no altar girls, no EMHC and definitely no female readers because the priest or transitional deacon read the epistle and gospel. also my diocese does not allow altar girls and the diocesan seminary, which is a four-year seminary, is full.
The videos don't necessarily represent the actual locations. I'vs seen this before places I know and whats on the screen is another place. They pay for libraries of content abd use images to compliment dialogue. Not to necessarily all literal.
And,remember Pope Francis condemnation of the genocide of the Palestinians. It is not antisemetic to protest the genocide. If someone condenms this, they are acting Anti Catholic. is
And,remember Pope Francis saying nothing about the genocide attacks by Hamas that the Palestinians VOTED for. It is anti-Semitic to protect the gynocidal actions of Palestine and it's love for Hamas..
DO NOT READ OUT LOUD IF YOU'RE CATHOLIC. I as an ex-Catholic, hereby declare that I have committed the act of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. I firmly state that I believe the Holy Spirit that Jesus talked about in the Bible stories to be nothing more than a demon. As a result, I acknowledge that I can never return to the Catholic Church through the sacrament of confession. From this day forward, if I attempt to go to confession to confess my sins in the Catholic Church, I recognize that I will only be confessing to a demon, for I have declared that the Holy Spirit is nothing more than a demon. This declaration is made of my own free will and is final.
A zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. As stated in the book of Galatians. Please open your Bibles and read.
You should be grateful for the new immigrants who continue to populate your parish churches. Without them, how can the Catholic Church survive?
The Church survives because she is founded by Christ and guided by the Holy Spirit. Low attendance or high attendance, that reality does not and will never change.

Legal immigrants ok. Bringing up children to go as adults is better.

Romans 3:22 KJV “even the righteousness of GOD which is by faith of JESUS CHRIST unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD; 24 being justified freely by HIS grace (free gift) through the redemption that is in CHRIST JESUS: 25 Whom GOD has set forth to be a propitiation (CHRIST crucified for the forgiveness of all sin satisfying the penalty for sin which is death for us in our place) through faith in HIS blood, to declare HIS righteousness for the remission of sins that are past (all sin is forgiven and in the past), through the forbearance of GOD;
27 Where is boasting then (relying on your own works to earn/deserve salvation)? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No: but by the Law of Faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law (works)."
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
@@jeffreyrodrigoecheverria2613 James is absolutely right. A saving faith will have works as evidence of that faith. The cause is GOD's Grace through faith and the effect is works but you switch it around and want to make the effect the cause. Absolutely wrong. If you want to justify yourself before GOD by works then you must present to HIM sinless perfection your entire life. If you cannot do that then death in hell are your wages.

It appears that most (if not all) of these churches are roman catholic, rather than Progressive Catholic, which is very disappointing..
Progressive is not the true church.
Progressive?
There are over 20 rites, "Roman" (Latin is really the correct title) is the largest one, and none of them have the title "Progressive."
There is no such thing
you mean, churches that have liturgical dancing, EMHCs wearing T-shirts and shorts while the priest just sits there while other people distribute the Eucharist? where priests talk more about climate change in their homilies than saving your soul with going to confession regularly?
