Quote:
...the massive Slav Orthodox emigration to Western Europe between 2004 and 2012 also played an immense role. Even small, provincial Western towns ended up with their own Orthodox churches. The witness of Orthodox Christian values to an astonished, paganized Western Europe at that time, coupled with the collapse of Roman Catholicism and other Western religious organizations, especially after 2006, was quite unforeseen.

Roman Catholicism is growing in the UK due to a large number of Polish immigrants.

"Most Holy Mother of God Save us."
