Mormon May Day

Home

Check out the Mormon Stories Podcast about Mormon May Day!

MAYDAY! MAYDAY! MAYDAY!

Mayday is used as a distress call, a call for help. It comes from the French venez m’aider, meaning “come (and) help me.” May Day is a traditional spring celebration, and in many parts of the world a day to celebrate workers and the achievements of the labor movement.

We would like Mormon May Day to combine the two meanings by signifying the distress of many moderate, liberal or radical Mormons feel at being inundated with overtly far-right political messages at church and celebrating and gathering in fasting and prayer to exercise our collective spiritual strength to eradicate poverty and advance the cause of social justice worldwide.

Please join with us on Sunday May 1, 2011 as we make our voices heard, within Mormonism, and throughout the world!

Make us hungry for justice,
Keep us thirsting for peace.
