Gen Z Turns to Churches Amid Growing Loneliness in US

DID Press: A report by TIME says young members of Generation Z are increasingly attending churches across the United States. At one gathering in New York, nearly all attendees were under 30, with the seats filled. The Bishop of Phoenix also reported that hundreds of people were baptized during Easter, most of them members of Generation Z.

At the same time, nearly 2,000 people attended a Catholic youth conference in Houston, while the Passion Conference is set to take place in two stadiums for the first time.

Young Christians have also attracted growing attention online, with media outlets describing churches as the “new hangout for Gen Z.”
