That is very true, they feel there is a lost tribe of Mormons in Mexico and they have made over two million converts, over the recent past, below the border. The head of the church is openly courting illegal immigrants and welcomed Vincente Fox last month with open arms.

"As for George Romney, [late] governor of Michigan [Mitt Romney's father]. . .The Romneys still live in the predominately Mormon community of Colonia Juarez, Chihuahua [historically a polygamy colony], the Stake in that part of Mexico, 5,000 people live there. It is located some 18 miles west of Casa Grandes in a beautiful valley filled with apple orchards. There are now 3 million Mormons in Mexico and they have a goal of 30 million by 2020. Their missionaries are literally everywhere. There were also still some of the Hatch family at Colonia Juarez just a few years ago."
