This blog is now famous. And not just this one, a few others too!
Missionary Blog Watch was mentioned in the October 2007 edition of EMQ (Evangelical Missions Quarterly). The article, by A. Scott Moreau (editor of EMQ) and Mike O’Rear (President of Global Mapping International) was entitled “An Introduction to Blogging on the Internet”.
Actually, it was kind of a passing mention, under the heading of Finding a Blog.
So if any of you are here after reading the article, welcome! This website is now watching well over 400 missionary blogs. Many of them are listed in one of the four blog lists, which you can access here. Or, find a country or continent in the sidebar to the left to learn more about highlighted blogs.
The most exciting thing, though, was not the mention of this site, but the highlighting of a (very) few missionary blogs! The authors listed their favourite missions-related blogs at the end, and only 3 personal missionary blogs. Correction – one bonus one was hidden away in the text of the article. Congrats to these four “famous” blogs:

Very cool! Congrats on the mention.
Would you mind fixing the URL to “Under the African Rain”? It points to “Missions Misunderstood” right now.
Yikes! Thanks for letting me know – it has been fixed.
Would that be Missionary misplaced? Or Misunderstood in the Rain?
Glad you noticed!
Congrats on the EMQ mention! Out of so many great missionary blogs out there, I don’t know how they settled on the 3-4 mentions that they did, but glad to know someone out there is reading. Keep up the great work. I don’t know how you keep track of so many blogs, but think it is great!
