Saint Ann Catholic Church, Marietta Ga
- "
On the mass front, we had 2383 views of our Mass last Sunday, That was individual views and we are estimating a value of 2.5 per view based on our demographics that is nearly 6000 people reached. At the end of the broadcast, we are adding a text to donate number. We should have some results on that at the end of the week.
We also had 2.4K views of Fr. Ray's inspirational messages and 1.6K on the 4:00 worldwide rosary. The key thing we are seeing is people are looking to the church. All of our departments are using Zoom (83 teens on last night's zoom), Facebook live etc. to stay in touch." - Saint Ann, Business Manager
