This is the new missionaries and their trainers and the AP's enjoying a breakfast together as we wait for the final 2 missionaries form Ghana to arrive. We also have Elder De la Cruz with us as his flight to Spain is not until Thursday August 25th. One more day to share the gospel.
Our final arrivals came with Joseph from the area office. He picked them up at 6:30 am and brought them to the mission home. We also enjoyed getting acquainted before they went to their area's with their new companions.
