Fast Offerings Increase During COVID-19 Pandemic

Church President Russell M. Nelson noted in a recent video interview that "the voluntary fast offerings of our members have increased" during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a rare example of the Church providing information about the donations of members to the Church as the Church does not publish information about the amount of its donations received annually or the number of members who pay a full-tithe or fast offerings. President Nelson's comment is unclear on whether the number of members who pay fast offerings has increased or if the monetary amount of fast offerings has increased.

Has anyone else noticed on the Classic Maps site, part of the Ecuador Guayaquil North and East Missions boundary is marked with same color (dark red) as the current 21 Church Areas boundaries?
