During her lifetime Guila was truly devoted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her husband's career in the U.S. Department of Agriculture moved them to the Pacific Northwest in 1934 at a time when the LDS Church was getting established in this area. Guila served as "mother" to many missionaries, with many cottage meetings and Sunday School and sacrament meetings held in their home. As wards and stakes were formed, Guila served in leadership positions in the Young Womens Mutual Improvement Association, Primary and the Relief Society. She was the first stake Relief Society president in the Columbia River Stake, Portland, Oregon. She and her eternal companion, Waldo, worked as temple workers in the Salt Lake City Temple for seven years. Following his death, she served a temple mission in the Manila Philippines Temple.
