"About three thousand." See Acts 2:41.
Acts 2 records the Day of Pentecost, but it doesn't give the number of believers present.Answer:Acts 2:41 - Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. [NKJV]
You can go to church and not be baptized, but to be recognized as a Christian to the church you have to be baptized.
The main idea of Acts chapter 2 is the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles at Pentecost. This event marked the beginning of the Christian church and empowered the apostles to spread the message of Jesus to people of different languages and nations. Peterโs sermon on that day resulted in many people being baptized and added to the early church.
Pentecost commemorates the day that the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles, prompting them to begin evangelizing. It is the birthday of the Church. Had Pentecost never occurred, there would be no Christian Church today.
Over 3,000 people were filled with the Holy Ghost on the Day of Pentecost according to the Book of Acts, chapter 2. There were 120 in the Upper Room according to Acts 1:15 that were the first to receive this gift of salvation. It then spread to the streets and according to Acts 2:41 there about 3,000 more. So there was approximately 3,120.

Currently, there are about 13.5 million baptized members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) worldwide. Just over half of these are women and girls over the age of eight - so about 6.5 to 7 million women and girls worldwide are baptized Mormons right now. The Church has not released any statistics on how many people have been members of the Church in the past, so we don't know how many people have been baptized as Mormons total. The Church also does not release any statistics on the age or gender of those baptized. We only know that all baptisms are performed on those who are at least 8 years old, and that slightly over half the members of the Church are women.
