LDS Church in the United States

The following is one way of many that people can look to gauge the strength of the LDS Church.  Personally I feel that although LDS Church Districts are vital and important in the growth of the LDS Church, an established LDS Stake reflects spiritual maturity and strength of the members in a particular area on a larger scale than a district.  I have listed the amount of people (not just members) in the population per stake.  The states with the fewest people to stake ratio are listed below.  To view the church growth in the manner although humbling hopefully instills in you as it does me the importance of helping our Church Districts develop into stakes of Zion.
