Although some Church members lived in Grenada while attending medical school, little permanent missionary work started until after the 1983 coup and subsequent invasion of Grenada by United States and United Nations forces. Under the direction of President Kenneth L. Zabriskie of the West Indies Mission, Elders Robert W. Hoffmaster and Leonard C. Gill arrived in Grenada in May 1985. They met with a medical student and their children. A branch (a small congregation) was established in St. George on 3 September 1985. Grenada is part of the Barbados Bridgetown Mission. Total Church Membership: 420. < | Although some Church members lived in Grenada while attending medical school, little permanent missionary work started until after the 1983 coup and subsequent invasion of Grenada by United States and United Nations forces.
