The new missionaries arrived last night!

The CCM emptied out on Tuesday but filled back up again on Thursday. The North Americans arrived on two separate flights, about 4:30 and 9:30pm. Thers are 45 of them, three are sisters. Our Haitian contingent flew directly to Santo Doningo (45 minute flight) and arrived about 7 pm. We greeted each group and helped get them a sandwich dinner, much of the staff had the day off. I was able to speak a little French and also had a good time with the arriving gringos, they were in the MTC in Provo with us, as they spend 3 weeks there. Now they will have 6 weeks here;  three weeks with the Haitians and the second three with the Latinos. I believe all Haitian missionaries serve in Haiti, I know all that come here do. We have 10 Elders and 2 Sisters in this group. So a round of "la bomba" and vaccinations will begin again!!
