Hi I'm Mercedes Wright
I am a Californian. I am a Field Hockey Goalie. I am a Mormon.
About Me
I am a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I am currently serving in the Salt Lake City South Mission. I am a student at BYU-Idaho. I play Field Hockey as a Goal Keeper. I also run track and compete in the high jump. I have played water polo and also swam competitively. I love the church and have grown up in the church. I am the third child of five. I have an older sister and brother and a younger sister and brother. My favorite temple is the San Diego Temple. One day I hope to have a family of my own for eternity.
Why I am a Mormon
I have always been a Mormon. I grew up in the church. I choose to stay in the church because I have such a strong testimony of the gospel and its truths. I love the church and can't imagine a life without it because it has brought me so much joy and so many new friends. I love serving the Lord.
How I live my faith
I am serving in the Utah Salt Lake City South Mission. I actively attend church activities in addition to attending church regularly. I teach the children at church. I have been a youth leader in my youth groups. I will be serving a mission for the church and can't wait to help others enjoy the same faith I participate in.
