Text of excerpt, if available
How do exactly parishes broadcast their worship online: where do they post or stream? Fig. 3 shows that Facebook has been chosen by plurality of the parishes (42%) as the preferred platform. YouTube and various video-conferencing software platforms are much less popular: only 14% and 7% of parishes respectively rely on them as the main tool for offering liturgical services via the Internet. And remarkably, only 5% of parishes utilize their own websites as major gateway for offering online services. Fig. 3 Platforms for Online Worship Services in US Orthodox Parishes Compared to liturgical life which – in some form - continues in nearly all churches, religious education classes and small group activities in parishes have suffered much more from the Coronavirus outbreak.
