If only it were so.....the Churches are EMPTY, even the Catholic ones....very very sad.

I was at the 11:00 Latin mass at Farm Street Church (Jesuit) in Mayfair, London. I saw the 9:30 Mass let out - since my daughter and I arrived early. I was impressed with how full the church was for both masses.

On the other hand, I have noticed a decline in Mass attendance at home in the last few years.

It matters not so much the numbers of people in the pews but instead the content of the hearts of the people who are there.

I LOVE the Farm Street Church!!! Used to be my Church and I just went to Mass there in November, but the Church was not even half full.

Whatever you do, DON'T stop to stay at a hotel.
