CWN Editor's Note: As the Catholic Church in France prepares to receive a record number of adult converts at the Easter Vigil, a survey finds that more than three-quarters of the converts cited the influence of social-media contacts in helping them discover the Church.

An even greater proportion of the candidates for baptism or confirmation said that they regularly follow Christian “influencers” on the internet.
