LostGeneration, the data is from the Mexico Census. The links that that you give are based on the numbers that the LDS gives out--all inflated and not even a good estimate of the true numbers.
slimboyfat, not all congregations are listed on the JW website. I've taken a look and I notice that several KHs in California and Kansas are missing, including some newly built ones. The list on other countries is also less complete. Congregations that don't meet at a Kingdom Hall are also left out.
steve2, sometimes you cant take OUTLAW's wit and sarcasm serious.

Probably a few dozen at most. Mostly filled with American retirees who preach to other American retirees. Not exactly a fruitful field.
There are currently 184 English speaking congregations in Mexico and 16 official groups. More than a just a few dozen.

Yeah, the "waters are drying up".
i don't recall seeing this posted on this board before, my apologies if the topic is duplicated..... in april 2011 and march 2012, the gb made a "loving provision" to allow jws to sign up for the auxiliary pioneer work with only a 30 hour requirement instead of the usual 50 hours.. in 2011, in the usa, about 500,000 signed up to be auxiliary pioneers.. in 2012, per the august 2012 km, only about 370,000 signed up.. that's a 26% drop in just 1 year!.
granted, in many parts of the us, the march weather is far worse than april's.
but on the other hand, there were 5 saturdays in march 2012 - you could get your "time in" with 5 long saturdays and nothing else.. .
The removal of the branch numbers from the Kingdom Ministry was a big step.
It was. But you know, not all the KM's leave the numbers out. In some countries, like Latin America and in Brazil, they include the complete month's figures from time to time, instead of the 'highlights'. A summary of the worldwide work is bound to happen tho.
