The number of seminarians in my dioceses has been growing over the last 10 years - not sure why. I believe my parish is growing, and there are loads of young families at Mass every Sunday. But I realize this is not typical.

2. My parish is doing well but the Episcopal Church is losing members.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

The Christian Church is dwindling. Here’s why I’m still hopeful.
