As of December 31, 2017, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) reported 153,955 members in 35 stakes,[1] 309 congregations (260 wards[2] and 49 branches[2]), three missions, and two temples in Oregon.[3] History{{Expand section|date=November 2009}}E. Kimbark MacColl's analysis of Portland, Oregon, history states "Portland was well endowed with churches, with approximately one for every 600 residents" in the 1890s.[5] In his survey of six leading denominations and all 25 missions, no mention was made of LDS denominations or missions.[4] A chapel was built in Portland in 1929, ready for an open house on February 15–17, 1929. The building "carried the architectural scheme of an old English manor, being constructed of dense lava stone and bricks of the clinker type, and is declared particularly suited to western Oregon climate and surroundings."[7] It included a maternity room and a basement with 14 classrooms.[7] The architect was C. R. Kaufman, and construction had begun on August 1, 1928.[5] Membership history
MissionsOn July 26, 1897, the Northwestern States Mission (headquartered in Portland) was organized to search out Latter Day Saints who had moved to Oregon, Washington, and Montana. On June 10, 1970, its name changed to the Oregon Mission and ultimately the Oregon Portland Mission on June 20, 1974. On July 1, 1990, the Eugene Mission was organized; and in July 2013, the Salem Mission was organized.
