Dan Stockman, writer for GlobalSistersReport.org, talks about the social media presence of the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist, which had at his writing 850,000 Facebook fans. He mentioned other traditional religious communities that were also popular on Facebook, and noted that they were “habited.”
GlobalSistersReport is a project of the National Catholic Reporter.
