🌞 Good Morning, Beautiful Souls! 💛 Each new day is a fresh chance to begin again — to breathe, to believe, and to become all that you’re meant to be. Life may not always go as planned, but every setback is a setup for a stronger comeback. 💪🏽

7 hrs agoThe richest church in the world is the Catholic Church, specifically the Vatican (Holy See).
Key Facts:
Estimated Wealth: Trillions of dollars (assets include real estate, art, gold, investments, and more)
Headquarters: Vatican City, an independent city-state
Leader: The Pope
Assets:
Vast global real estate holdings (cathedrals, churches, schools, hospitals, etc.)
Priceless art and artifacts (Michelangelo’s Pietà, the Sistine Chapel ceiling, etc.)
Investments through the Institute for the Works of Religion (aka the Vatican Bank)
Donations and revenue from its 1.3 billion global members
While the Vatican doesn’t release detailed public financial reports, multiple investigations and reports suggest its wealth is unmatched by any other religious institution.
If you’re looking for a breakdown, comparison with other churches (like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or Anglican Church), or historical context, just say the word.
