Latter-day Saint retention rate falls to 54%, study finds
Original: Study: Latter-day Saint retention rate falls to 54%
A new study finds that the retention rate for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has fallen to 54%, meaning fewer than half of those raised in the faith remain active members as adults. The figure reflects a broader trend of declining religious retention across many denominations in the United States, and is likely to prompt discussion about how the church engages and keeps younger generations.
Why now: The study offers new data on declining religious retention, a topic of growing concern as church membership trends shift in the United States.
