Grass Roots in Mexico: Stories of Pioneering Latter-day Saints
-
Provo, UT; Salt Lake City, UT
-
BYU Religious Studies Center; Deseret Book Company
-
"Given its slow beginnings in rural Mexico in the 1880s, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has experienced phenomenal growth in that land. And this despite periods of wrenching social change, political upheaval, and revolution on a national scale, as well as years of forced isolation from North American missionaries and Church leaders in Utah and a decade of dissension and schism among members.
"The intriguing history in part 1 provides the essential backdrop for the crux of the book-- the colorful, inspirational vignettes in part 2. Taken together, these personal accounts provide an invaluable grassroots view of how the Latter-day Saint faith took root in the land by profoundly touching lives, resulting in significant accomplishments personally and in the gospel cause."
