Primary activity/GANS Barbeque

The Primary asked the GANS (Young Single Adults) to assist with their summer primary activity so Claudio, Valerio, Giuseppe, Gabriella and Gionni  stepped right up and took care of things. Here Claudio is teaching how to do a relay-- hoola hoop pass down the line without using your hands.

Next is wet sponge dodge ball--they loved it--it was so hot outside!

A few of the older Primary kids (and some no longer Primary) 

Then...water balloon catch

The GANS had a barbeque and we were in charge of doing the hanburgers.  Chris tried to clean up a couple of really rusty barbeques to use but ended up just buying one.  How do we get THAT on the plane home??  These aren't the best pictures of a barbeque but they just finished playing basketball outside and were trying to cool off in the air conditioned church.  Didn't take a picture of the  great food we had (my mother would be ashamed) but it was a great time.  The missionaries also came and it was PDay so they are all on their tablets writing home. 

 This is wonderful Mima who has a daughter on a mission and next to her is a missionary that served in Bari a couple years ago and now teaches Italian at the MTC--Sorella Preston.

 Below is Claudio, Valerio and Giuseppe.  Claudio is leaving in September for the Milan mission and Valerio just got his call to England.  We sure love these ragazzi!
