Ireland was once known as one of the most Catholic countries in the entire world. In the 1950's and 60's, it was estimated that about 90% of the Irish population went to Mass on Sundays. However now in 2023, that number has dropped significantly to around 30%. For this St. Patrick's Day, EWTN News reporter Colm Flynn traveled to his home country to talk to members of the Church about why they think the faith has declined so much in the Emerald Isle.

Hosted by Montse Alvarado, EWTN News In Depth welcomes guests in a discussion of current events in the Church, politics, and culture, all through the lens of the Catholic faith. The show airs on EWTN Fridays at 8pm ET. It re-airs on Saturdays at 1am ET & Sundays at 11am ET

This show is about finding out who we are as people and as Catholics, and how we can confidently live our faith in the world. It is produced by EWTN News: https://www.ewtnnews.com
