April and Khmer New Year also brought us a wonderful group of new missionaries from the Provo MTC-- all Khmer speaking-- this group of 12 missionaries are wonderful and we were so happy to have them join us. 3 sisters, 9 elders. All fantastic.
Elder Kham and Elder Nam-- our wonderful assistants. Love that smile.
We usually do a puzzle activity with the new missionaries the first evening-- by then they have had several hours of interviews and orientation, and have been up for 2 days straight traveling, so they are usually very tired-- if we let them sit they just go to sleep, so we try and have a "participatory" devotional where we do the puzzle activity and talk about lessons learned from it. It usually works well and they stay awake during it. If we can keep them up until evening they usually adjust much better to the time zone.
