The Episcopal Church provided a bulletin insert for August 23 that discussed the ECUSA's use of Facebook and Twitter to stay connected with Episcopalians across the country (and, conceivably, around the globe). My home church doesn't use bulletin inserts; consequently, if I did not regularly read Episcopal Life Online, I would not have known about it.

I'm a member of the Facebook group for St. Paul's in Oklahoma City. Unfortunately, I'm only one of 94 members. For a church with nearly a thousand baptized members, that number seems pretty insignificant. I did a search of Facebook and only found one other Episcopal Church in the Oklahoma City Metro with a group – St. John's in Norman, and they only have 41 members in their group.

Read it all.
