I have so many amazing online friends who inspire and edify me each week to be a better, more tuned in and faith-filled Catholics. One of those friends is John Clem, the Director and Media Minister at Catholic Web Services (http://catholicws.com/). John has been doing a weekly roundup of the best faith-related tweets of the week, and has kindly offered to share this with our family here at Patheos Catholic Channel. I’ve taken him up on the offer and hope to provide this as a regular weekly feature on Friday mornings. If you’re like me, you may have heard of many of these stories in passing, but the hectic nature of a typical work week has kept you from digging in. With John’s “sweet tweets”, we can play catch up on Fridays and end the week more fully informed.
Here are some of the sweet tweets from this past week posted by Catholic Web Services (June 22nd – 28th)
