There are two stakes of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) in Paris, France. A stake is a geographical group of congregations similar to a Catholic Diocese.

As of 2001 The Paris Stake consisted of six large congregations (wards) and three small congregations (branches).

The Paris East Stake had seven large congregations (wards) and six small congregations (branches).

Generally, a ward has 100 to 300 members, and a branch has 15-150 members, but there is no exact standard. The average in most French congregations is 300 baptized members per congregation with about 100 participating in worship services weekly.

"Mormon" is a nickname for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm not sure what you mean by a Mormon group...

Mutual or Young Men/Young Women is a group for teens.

Can you join a Mormon ward outside your area?

While you may visit services of any ward or branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), members are asked to attend their assigned congregation most of the time. Ward boundaries are drawn geographically, taking into account driving distance to the church as well as the number of practicing members in the congregation. Members of the church will have their membership records held at their home ward, and are expected to have callings in that ward, pay tithing to that ward, and have the Bishop of that ward as their local church authority. Occassionally, you may be able to have your records sent to a different ward. This usually happens in the case of attending a special language ward/branch or a singles ward, but can happen for other reasons as well. Some cases I have seen were a youth attending church with extended family rather than alone in his assigned ward and a troubled divorce in which both husband and wife lived in the same ward boundaries. If you feel you need to be a member of a ward that is not your assigned ward, you will need to discuss that issue with your bishop and see if you can have your records transferred.


What is the Mormon stake and ward of Jennette mccurdy?

Jennette McCurdy has never said that she is Mormon. When asked about her religious faith, she simply stated "I believe." If she is Mormon, we can't find her stake and ward unless we know her home address, which she has also not given out.


What is the average size of a ward in the Mormon church?

A ward outside of the "Mormon Curtain" (Utah, Idaho, Arizona, parts of California, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington) in the United States would probably have anywhere from 50 to 200 active members. Inside the "Mormon Curtain", wards are usually larger, about 300 -400 people. I was once in a ward that hit over 600 people before it was split into two. Our youth group alone had 150 teenagers! A branch, on the other hand, a small congregation, can be anywhere from 5 people to nearly 200.


What is ward houses in Salt Lake City?

A "Ward House" usually referrs to a church or meetinghouse of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church). A Mormon congregation is called a "Ward", and so the building that houses the ward is often called a "Ward House". Church members may also refer to them as "meetinghouses", "churches", and "chapels". Similarily, a "Stake House" or "Stake Center" is a large church or meetinghouse which contains offices for a geographical group of congregations - a stake is similar to a Catholic diocese. Many community gatherings and activities, as well as worship services and religious education classes, are held in ward houses and stake centers. You can see a virtual tour of a typical "Ward House" at the "related link" below.
