Birthday announcement

December 23rd 2005 will be the 200th birthday of Joseph Smith, translator of the Book of Mormon and founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints. Today the members of this religion number more than 12 million. This religion is one of the fastest-growing faiths in the world, with 56,000 young missionaries in the field spreading the word. There will be many articles, publications, films and books including a “Newsweek” magazine special feature later this fall. There have already been a number of Mormon conferences. I plan to say more later.
