Fun and games with the Young Adults!!!

Every Friday, we have 2 Institute classes, dinner and then an activity!  Here the young adults are playing a fun game with a soccer ball and each person tries kick the ball under someone's chair!  These young adults are very good with their soccer skills!  In fact, they are amazing!!! 

There are no cultural halls in Italy, so they have to use the Chapel...for many purposes!  We have never seen this before....but, even when they have dances, the only place big enough.... is in the Chapel! 

These guys move so fast, it is difficult to get a good picture of them!  This is Diego really moving fast!!!

This is Daniele.....scoring a goal!!!

While the young adults were playing soccer, Eduardo was playing wonderful background music!

Daniele caught the ball in his mouth!!!  (Just kidding!)  As you can see, these young adults are very intelligent!

Another fun game that the young adults really like to play is ping pong!  As you can see, we use whatever tables we can, to make a ping pong table!  

This is Renzo Bendezu' (left) and Stefano Ngao.  Stefano is the assistant clerk in our ward and we are very proud of him!  Renzo has to travel from Ladispoli and we appreciate all of these great young adults that travel so far to come to the Stake Center to attend Institute class!  They really sacrifice a lot to come!

We always set up a snack table before class and we always have dinner after class!  These young adults are always hungry!

This is Dima and Eugenia Scotchi.  They are brother and sister and they are also in our ward!  Dima is the Stake Clerk.  They live here in Rome with their Mom, Ala.  They are from Moldavia.  Ala came to Italy to find employment about 12 years ago.  Dima and Eugenia joined her about a year later.   We have had the pleasure of going to their apartment a few times and we have really have enjoyed getting to know this wonderful family!
