Summary

“The most important thing I’d love women to know is that Heavenly Father loves (you), of course, and that He wants to be in the details of your life. He wants to be invited in to help. He knows our hearts, and He knows the things that bring us joy, and He really wants to be a part of that.” In this episode we talk with Tania Torea, the Assistant Communication Director for the Church’s Pacific Area based in New Zealand. Tania shares how her faithful and courageous ancestors and the beautiful customs and traditions from her Maori culture have influenced her for good. Through personal experience, Tania reminds us that the Lord knows the desires of our hearts, and through prayer we can bring about miracles in our lives and receive peace and help in times of difficulty.
