APRIL ARRIVALS

This was a transfer from Heaven. It was the first group in the nine months we have been here that arrived on time. They got here about 1:30 in the afternoon. We brought them to the Mission  home and had some fruit , cheese and crackers and cookies. They had been up since 2:00am. We oriented them while President started interviews. We finished in time for them to take a little nap while I finished dinner. We had a nice dinner and after that we shared our love with them and little bit about us and our vision for the mission. We heard testimonies from our Assistants and all of the new missionaries. They were wonderful testimonies of the Savior and expressions of dedication. They wrote their "I've arrived" letters , opened their new area letters, found out where they were on the map, had a little desert, and off to bed they went. We are very excited about the spirit we felt from this group of missionaries.
