“A mother’s hug is love’s quiet way of saying, ‘You are home.’” Happy Mother’s Day!

For years, churches have worried about empty pews. At St. Joseph’s Church in Greenwich Village, the problem is flipped: There isn’t enough room.

A recent 6 p.m. Sunday Mass felt like a sold-out event. Every inch of pew space was filled, mostly with young adults. An hour earlier, many of these same worshipers had been eating pizza.

For the past months, two 20-somethings, Anthony Gross and Kate DePetro, have hosted “Pizza to Pews,” a pre-Mass meetup at The Pizza Box nearby. More than 100 young adults showed up the first week; by the third, it was 200. Some drive in from Long Island; others take the train from Boston. Then, like a field trip, the group walks to church together.

Gen Z Christians attend church more often than millennials, Gen X and baby boomers, according to the Barna Group, a firm that studies U.S. faith trends. In 2025, the typical Gen Z churchgoer attended nearly two weekends a month, the highest level since the firm began tracking, and up from around one weekend a month in 2020.

Young men in particular are more interested in faith. A Gallup poll released in April found that in 2025, 42% of young men said religion is very important to them, up sharply from 28% in 2023, and overtaking young women.

In every season of life, Jesus walks with us, protects us, and gently carries us when we feel lost. May His love lead us back to peace, hope, and faith.

Lord Jesus,
as You walked with the disciples on the road to Emmaus, walk with us too in our confusion, weariness, and doubt. Open our eyes to Your presence in our daily journey, warm our hearts with Your word, and lead us back to hope, faith, and joy. Stay with us, Lord, for without You, the road grows dim.Amen.

When the Pope serves conscience and politicians serve chaos, choose the side that still knows how to pray, think, and tell the truth.

Divine Mercy Sunday Prayer

Lord Jesus, Divine Mercy,
On this sacred feast, we come before You
With hearts open, weary, and in need of Your grace.

From Your Heart flows mercy for the whole world,
A mercy that reaches beyond our failures,
Beyond our fears,
Beyond all that separates us from You.

Jesus, we trust in You.
In moments of doubt, be our truth.
In times of injustice, be our justice.
In our weakness, be our strength.

Look with compassion on Your people,
On those who labor quietly each day,
Farmers, workers, teachers, healers, and servants of society.
Bless their hands, their efforts, and their sacrifices.

Forgive us, Lord,
For the times we have failed to love,
For the moments we judged instead of understood,
For the good we received but did not acknowledge.

Forgive those who betrayed You,
And those who, out of insecurity or pride,
Could not accept the goodness You gave to others.
Heal every hardened heart
And replace it with mercy.

Pour out Your mercy upon our world,
Where there is division, bring unity,
Where there is pain, bring healing,
Where there is darkness, bring Your light.

Teach us to be instruments of Your mercy,
To forgive as You forgive,
To love as You love,
And to trust as You trust the Father.

Jesus, we place our lives in Your hands,
Our past, our present, and our future.

Jesus, we trust in You.
Jesus, we trust in You.
Jesus, we trust in You.

Amen.
