On the other hand, no new congregations have been created in Ireland over that period, which suggests poor retention of new converts and other members. What’s more, according to the recently released 2022 census, only 1,111 people in Ireland said they were Mormon, a figure that includes both adults and children. This means that 72% of those the church claims as members do not declare themselves as such.
