If The Church Isn't Crying, It's Dying Tee

The If The Church Isn’t Crying, It’s Dying Tee comes screen printed on a heather deep teal v-neck tee. ‘If the church isn’t crying, it’s dying // *Steps on soapbox* As a mom who’s been through the joyful chaos of taking little ones to mass, I’ve experienced firsthand the beautiful symphony of baby coos, toddler giggles, and yes, even the occasional cries. It’s a reminder that the church is a family, a place where everyone is welcome, from the tiniest members to the oldest. The words ‘If the church isn’t crying, it’s dying’ are a gentle nudge to embrace the beautiful mess that comes with a thriving and growing community. Just as Mary tenderly wipes away tears from baby Jesus’s eyes in the image on this shirt, we’re called to create a space where every member, young and old, can find solace and belonging.

Our children are the future of the church, and their presence enriches our gatherings with their innocence, curiosity, and unfiltered joy. The sounds of their laughter and, yes, their cries, are a testament to the vibrancy of our faith community.

My hope is that wearing this shirt is a celebration of the importance of a welcoming church, one that values the unique contributions of every member, no matter their age. It’s a reminder that Mary’s tender gesture reminds us to approach one another with love, compassion, and a willingness to embrace the beautiful messiness of life.
