STUDY: Half Of All Protestant Churches Are On Facebook

A new study revealed almost half of all Protestant churches in the country are active users of Facebook.

Would you feel comfortable expressing your faith on Facebook? One way to do that is to befriend your place of worship on the social network. There’s about a 50 percent chance you can do exactly that if you’re Protestant.

Nearly half of all Protestant churches in the U.S. have Facebook pages or profiles, according to Technorati, which cited a LifeWay Research study of just over 1,000 Protestant congregations, which include Baptist, Episcopal, Lutheran, Methodist, and Mormon faiths

Not surprisingly, larger churches were more likely to be on the social networking site than smaller ones.
