Colorado's right next to Utah - you know, Mormon Central.

In keeping with original Mormon teachings, much of the property in Hildale and Colorado City is held in trust for the church. Striving to be as self-sufficient as possible, the community grows a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, and everyone, including children, is expected to help bring in the yield.

My parents were missionaries - I was born in the States but I grew up in Brazil.

Some missionaries are giants in the Spirit and pygmies in skills in the Spirit. Work hard to develop a balance. Your leaders, and you, should teach the skills to each other.

My heart reaches out to you missionaries. You simply cannot do it alone and do it well. You must have the help of others. That power to help lies within each of us.

Missionaries serve to make life better for God's children.

What can we do to put more Colorado in Washington and less Washington in Colorado?

Missionaries must not calculate on the least comfort but what they find in one another and their work.

I grew up in Colorado and spent my summers in Montana as a ranch hand.

I counseled many returning missionaries. I interviewed 1,700 missionaries all over the world. My advice to them is that you should study and prepare for your life's work in a field that you enjoy.
