Bishops Who Blog, Post and PodCast

.
The lumbering Roman Catholic Church is slowly, under the guidance of 85 year old Pope Benedict XVI, moving into the 21st Century.

And already 26 American bishops, including our own Archbishop John Nienstedt, are using computers to communicate with their flocks.

Countless priests are doing so, also.

The Aggie Catholic blog (Texas A&M) and the Twin Cities' Catholic Servant web page have put together a list of those bishops and how they are communicating electronically.
