The tragic massacre of women and children on the road to Colonia La Mora, Senora, Mexico were targeted towards extended members of the LeBaron clan.
Life for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located in Colonia Dublan and Colonia Juarez, both located in the state of Chihuahua, still goes on as normal. The cycle of caring for orchards, cultivation of chili crops, cattle ranching, and school days at the Academia Juarez still continue.
However, the colonists of Colonia Dublan and Colonia Juarez do have a heightened sense of awareness and are taking precautions such as not driving at night.
My heart goes out to their families. The fact that the ones who died were women
and children, even infants, is too horrible! My husband was born in Col. Pacheco,
so I am very concerned for those still living in the Colonies. They certainly need
all our prayers.
