Where to Find the Mormon Church on Twitter

Twitter has really exploded this year. While it remains to be decided if the Twitterverse will revolutionize the universe, it’s an interesting way to stay in touch and engage people and organizations with whom you may otherwise not.

Not to be left out, various parts of the LDS Church have started tweeting. Here are some of the official tweeters (twitterers? twit channels?) that I have come across, designated with the ‘@’ symbol. Have I missed some?

@mormonmessages – Mormon Messages (offical LDS YouTube channel)
@LDSNewsroom – LDS Newsroom
@mormonchannel – Mormon Channel (LDS Radio)
@ldstech – LDS Tech (Church forum for all things tech)
@MoTabChoir – Mormon Tabernacle Choir –

While not official, Nothing Wavering has rigged a Twitter feed for all official LDS RSS updates via its @LDSOfficial. It also has other twitter feeds for its blog aggregators.

Alas, the official @LDSChurchNews – shows no signs of coming back from suspension since it was hacked last month. Not too important, I bet, as they also recently deployed a very useful RSS feed.

Is @LDSNews legit? It claims to be news from the Church linking to LDS.org but was only tweeting during the last conference.

Some other LDS-related twitter channels that are may be considered semi-official or not.

@northtemple – the designers behind LDS.org
@BYUStudies
@LDSMediaTalk – church media and web people on how to use new technology wisely
@mormontimes – DesNews publication on all things Mormon
@BYUbroadcasting – representing BYU Broadcasting

Many members of the bloggernacle have their own Twitter feeds to tweet away or just announce new blog posts. There are too may to list here but the @Tweeternacle’s interesting commentary is worth highlighting as a blogless voice who nonetheless has become a valuable part of the Bloggernacle.

I can’t say I’m a big twit (at least in this regard) as I find it hard enough to keep up with email and trying to blog, but I do use @asoftanswer, @ldsmormonblogs (soon to be reactivated), and my personal @davidsundwall.
