The efforts of her and her husband, Hirini Te Rito Whaanga, hundreds of members of their tribe were baptized. Mere and Hirini became vital to LDS work in the area. She moved to Salt Lake City in 1984, where she stayed until the death of her sister-in-law, besides a year-and-a-half mission back to New Zealand.
