On a sidenote, when I went on my mission, my home ward (SLC) had 33 missionaries out in the field. Now, that included four mission presidents and wives but man, that was pretty crazy. At one point, we had either a missionary farewell or homecoming for 9 out of 12 weeks. I have no idea what it is like now, but I would be shocked if there were more than 5-10 missionaries out from that ward.
