Sara Gonzalez

Mattsson-Boze
Sara died on September 1, and was buried in Sweden. Jose was there with her. She was a courageous and diligent missionary who often climbed the mountains to minister in remote places. She inspired many young people to go into missionary work.
She had struggled with cancer for the past couple of years.
I was able to have Hans Larsson represent me at the funeral. He had already been asked to sing. I wanted to go, but I had sent my passport in for renewal, and was without it.
Sara was an early missionary to Patagonia, and there are still many people who came to faith through her trip when she was young back in the 1950's.
