Summary

Description
English: Graph was produced using gnuplot with data from the yearly statistics of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints given in General Conference. For example, the report for 2022: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/liahona/2023/05/statistical-report-2022 . Additional data from 1971 to 1976 was estimated from an older graph on Commons because General Conferences before '77 didn't list the number of full-time missionaries. That graph is here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ratio_of_Converts_Baptized_to_Full-Time_Missionaries.jpg
