If one is only an American Citizen, they are still considered Citizens of the United States regardless of where they live (though they may be legal "residents" of other countries their "citizenship" remains).
If one has dual (or multiple) citizenships, they would be considered American Citizens for some purposes (IRS can claim taxes on foreign-sourced income, for example) but if they are resident in one of the countries of their other citizenship, they would not be able to claim assistance of the United States vis-a-vis the other country.
For example, if Bob is a citizen of the United States by birth and naturalized in Country "X" and Bob lives in Country "X". Bob could not claim assistance from the United States for punishment for crimes committed in "X" or from mandatory military service in "X".

Are People are no longer considered citizens of their country if they live abroad?
No, living abroad does not automatically strip someone of their citizenship. Citizenship is typically determined by factors such as birthright, descent, or acquisition through naturalization. Some countries may have residency or other requirements to maintain citizenship, but living abroad alone does not result in loss of citizenship.
How did Mormons adapt to be considered American?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) didn't adapt to be considered American. Historically, Church members who were American Citizens were always considered American Citizens. Those who were citizens of another nation were identified by their citizenship or nationality. From the very beginning of the Church, the Church has had a very extensive foreign missionary program. Many "Mormons" didn't adapt to be considered American because they weren't American. That is still true today, where over 60% of the nearly 14 million Church members live outside of the United States and do not care to be identified as American, because they are citizens of the nations in which they live. When challenged by the US government the LDS abandoned polygamy.
