Service Project in our Home Ward, Rome 1

Just who can you always count on to come and be there and support you with a smile and continuously ask, "How can we help?"  You guessed it, the missionaries.  They are awesome!


This hygiene kit activity was for the young single adults and about 10 showed up.  This activity was prior to Seminary/Institute graduation.    But again, thank goodness for the missionaries!

You might recognize her:  Barbara Ventura.  I can never say it enough, one talented lady.  To repeat, she has been out of work for 2 years but she just won her suit against her employer and is back at work.  She doesn't plan to stay long however so she is taking a course at the Red Cross and hopes to land a job there.

This smiling sister we met in Pescara and she is from Costa Rica, but now she is in our ward.  Hooray! The other sister is Italian and now serving in our ward and this is her first assignment.  

Loading up the MEDU van with the completed hygiene kits.  And it's hot.  Over 30 degrees celsius.  Those poor Anziano were sweating up a storm.  But they smiled, they worked hard, they were happy to do anything we asked, they were essential!

Well done crew!  Another hygiene kit activity completed, check!
