Solution

The most plausible answer to this question is that "Population densities were too low." In the early stages of western settlement, people were spread out over large distances. This would have made it difficult to gather a large enough group of people to support the establishment of a church. Additionally, resources such as building materials and funds would have been scarce, as settlers would have been primarily focused on meeting their basic survival needs.
