Quietly, almost imperceptibly, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints continues to grow, marked in the last year by the announcement of nine new temples, including two in Africa. While much of this growth goes unnoticed by the major media, to members of the Church, the spread of faith is the most important news in the world. The Deseret News 2012 Church Almanac is the most complete record of this stone that was cut out without hands.
Unique this year is the printing of the 150 millionth copy of the Book of Mormon. This great book has come far since its original printing. Likewise, the website familysearch.org grows in popularity among genealogists with an almost inconceivable 15 billion hits. Highlighting the year is the organization of the Moscow Russia Stake, the first in "that great empire," as Joseph Smith once called it.
Changes in Church leadership, the organization of the Church by areas of the world, history of the Church by state in the U.S. and by countries across the globe are all recorded in the 608 pages of the Deseret News 2012 Church Almanac.
