  • This story should be a movie! Meliton Trejo was a direct descendant on the Castilian line of governors of Spain appointed by the Romans. A Sacred Vision brought him to Salt Lake City in the 1870s where he strutted about town in a Spanish officers full dress uniform attracting considerable attention. He was introduced to the gospel and baptized. He felt an urgent desire to translate the Book of Mormon into Spanish. Ten years later he presented his work as a gift to the church. Called by Brigham Young he opened proselyting in Mexico and baptized the first Mexican converts to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Mexico. He helped colonize Colonia Mexico where he met the young man who became known as Pancho Villa. This amazing story weaves the workings of the Lord's hand in bringing the Gospel to Spanish speaking saints and tells how Temple work was orchestrated from the other side of the veil for General Filipe Angeles and Pancho Villa. The Lord loves all His children.

    I'm sure I butchered some of the pronunciation of the Spanish names. I forgot the correct way to say Huerta. One of my friends who is from Mexico coached me, but I messed several of them up. Thanks for your patience with me and names.

    I met Pancho Villa's wife when we went to get my brother off his mission in the 70s. She was very old at the time but she was so kind to me. I was young and she was like an older grandmother. I think we went to his property that was like a museum back then. I didn't know who he was at the time, but learned as I got older. I still have my Pancho Villa string puppet they sold at the home.
    This was a great story! My brother was in the Chihuahua mission.

    Wow! While enrolled in one of my Master's Degree classes, Poncho Villa's name came up. We were discussing family history and I think one of the ladies in the group said she was related to Poncho Villa. After today's story ... well ... I couldn’t be more surprised! Wish I knew then what I know now! Great story and thank you! 😊👌😉

    Thanks for sharing! I wasn't as familiar with Meliton Trejo story, Daniel Webster Jones is my ancestor and am very familiar with his story on the translation and opening up the Mexican Mission, his story is also a Miracle and I agree with you, there needs to be a movie made with both of their stories together.

      Everything on the this episode was found doing research on the web. I didn't use any books. Here is the main article about Pancho, there were also some details that came from a few other articles. One about the vision under Bert Whetton's name: latterdaysaintmag.com/when-pancho-villa-appeared-asking-for-temple-work/#google_vignette

    Decreases credibility when you don’t correct serious spelling such as calling Pancho Villa as Poncho.
