First U.S. Catholic Bishop on Facebook to Socially Evangelize

Fan pages and groups on Facebook aren’t just for sainting mobsters. On the other side of the spectrum, a fan page started for Bishop Anthony B. Taylor of Little Rock, Arkansas shows another example of Facebook’s influence on groups and individuals.
