There he joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, served a mission, became a branch president, and began translating for the church. He went on to translate the Pearl of Great Price, the Doctrine and Covenants, Jesus the Christ , church manuals, and the temple ceremony. He also founded the Spanish-language Liahona magazine, helped establish the church translation department, and served as a patriarch for Latinos in the US and other parts of the Spanish-speaking world.
