Mormon Worker blog in new languages.
2April 12, 2011 by The Mormon Worker
A special thanks is in order for Robert Poort who started new Mormon Worker blogs in Dutch, German, French, and Afrikaans. Tabs to each of these are found at the top of this blog, as well as to the Spanish blog which was started recently also.
If you were a missionary anywhere in which these languages were spoken, please spread the word about these blogs. We will need additional bloggers and translators for each of these as well to make sure they have great content posted regularly. If you want to help out in that regard, please send an email to themormonworker@gmail.com
Thanks! Will

Tres Bien! Viva La France!
Starting Mormon Worker blogs in many languages may help progressive Latter-day Saints around the world to get involved. Believe me, in the international church there are many socialists and communists who clearly recognize the connection with their mormon faith tradition!
I also maintain the home page for the – somewhat dormant – MESJ.

On the MESJ site I just started the project: Worldwide Mormon Media, a reference work cataloging church and independent mormon media in many languages. Amazing how few non-English independent mormon media there actually are, and a great opportunity to promote progressive mormon sites with non-English content like LiberalMormon – Mormon Worker – Affirmation.

I think The Mormon Worker has great potential to grow around the world, where people are yearning to connect their faith with social, economic and political issues they care deeply about.
anxiously engaged,
