Dominican Republic Gets a Zone Visit
By Jac | January 30, 2010
In the wake of the Haiti quake the entire Dominican Republic gathered at 5 different locations to have a Zone Visit. The speakers were at the assembly hall in Santo Domingo, and we were connected via Satellite. One group was at the assembly hall in Villa Gonzalez, we were at the baseball stadium in Santiago, and other groups gathered at baseball stadiums in San Fransisco de Macoris and La Romana. We were able to see and hear the speaker via satellite transmission. It was pretty awesome!

The visit was planned long before the earthquake hit, but adjustments were made to update us on the status of what was happening in Haiti. Talks were given in Spanish and translated into ASL and Haitian Creole. At the 5 locations there were over 65,000 in attendance.
