Yep. We now outnumber the Baptists in the Dallas area.

Converts?

Immigrants?

Converts and Catholics moving to Texas from other states make up the majority of registered members. Illegals don’t bother registering most of the time.

A surge in immigrants from Latin America also is reshaping the church. Hispanics now make up between 20 percent and 30 percent of the Catholic population nationally and two-thirds of the Catholics in the Dallas Diocese.
