I served an LDS mission in Guatemala in the late 1980s. As my
mission progressed, we began to average over 700 baptisms per
month, with some companionships baptizing over 40 in one month.
When I tried to talk with my mission president about the issue--it
got messy. Today we claim 12+ million members in the Church, but

a polygamist) who preceded him as Church President ever since
Joseph Smith. In an age prior to professional image-makers, he
instinctively grasped the importance of appearance, and coupled it
to the substance of a professional educator to become an icon of
Mormonism whose persona did much to change the negative image of
the Church in much of the world.
