14. Lynbrook New York - April 13th, 2014

There are now 3,069 stakes worldwide, with 1,526 in the US (49.8%) and 1,543 outside the US.

The Lynbrook New York stake is personally gratifying to me. My parents moved to New York in 1960 and there was just one stake covering about 12 million people in the "tri-state" area.  Now there are 15 stakes and one district.  When I was a youth, I lived in a branch, that then became a stake. It is amazing. We were in the London Temple District but Salt Lake City was easier to get to. Now there is the Manhattan temple in what used to be my stake center and temples being built in both Hartford, CT and Philadelphia, PA

Here is a map of the Lynbrook stake (East part of Queens and Western Long Island)

Lynbrook boundaries in thick light blue, other stake boundaries in green - gospel rolls forth. The LDS church doubles about every 18-20 years, so in my lifetime (born 1964), it has grown seven-fold from 2.2 million to 15.2 million.

The Bluffdale Utah South stake is right at the point of the mountain on the west side of I-15 and is a short driving distance to four temples.
