Meet Ana

Ana follows Jesus Christ by helping her family. She obeys her parents and helps watch her younger brothers. She says, “When I help others, I feel grateful and happy.”

Ana also follows the Savior by praying when she needs help. Ana is a dancer. When she performs in front of people, she gets nervous. Praying helps her have courage to perform and do her best.
