SALT LAKE CITY — In November,
Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve
Apostles visited the Dominican Republic, a country that he
had visited 30 years earlier when there were just a handful
of Mormons there. Today more than 110,000 Mormons live in
the island nation and the Church continues to grow rapidly
there. A video posted on Newsroom today highlights Elder
Ballard's visit.
