Today The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (sometimes referred to by the media or friends of other faiths as "The Mormon Church") has over 16 million members in over 160 nations worldwide. Currently, 161 of its beautiful temples adorn sites in North, South, and Central America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and numerous islands of the sea. There are 40 other LDS temples that have either been announced or are under construction. The relief and humanitarian efforts of the Church have helped bless the lives of millions around the world, regardless of faith, as it follows the example of its Living Head, Jesus Christ.
