I didn't think to take pictures of the place we had the conference at. It was a Hotel/ chapel/ conference place, I think owned by the Catholic Church. We were instructed and up lifted. We have different challenges as seniors and getting some instructions on paper work and other issues was very helpful. We also got ideas about what is working in some of the other areas. We went back to the Villa for dinner. The Mission Home was just a few blocks away. The Sisters served us and the Elders and Sister cleaned up. It was great to see some of the ones we have worked again.

 After Dinner we walked to the Gelato ( Ice Cream). Part of our instruction was to get a minimum of 30 minutes of walking time in per day! Which is easy for us to do but not as easy for some of the other jobs on the mission. We came across these beautiful vines. I have never seen these flowers, but there are so many flowers that are new to me here. 

 We rather overwhelmed the Gelato place and it was in high demand at 8pm in evening. Many of the people of Roma and Crotone go out for gelato at about that time and then eat dinner at 9!

 We went back to the Villa and had our last good byes for the evening and a few photos which as you can see are not too great.

 We spent the next morning in meetings and met at the Villa for Lunch

 We then had another photo op before everyone headed out.Brother Calabresi is on the front roll visiting with a sister. He has been serving at the Mission office for 17 years as a volunteer. He deals with all the bills and landlords and any other business that gets a little sticky. He is Italian and a Patriarch. The office really runs wonderfully well because he has so many connections and because of his dedication.

 Three of the seniors serve as Branch Presidents.

  President Waddoups and Sorella Waddoups had a 24 hour time slot that they could have this conference--- That is how tight their schedule is. After we all left at 3 they started on the next conference at 4 which they have repeated endlessly! The Waddoups are just amazing!

We went and picked up the rest of the church materials we needed from the office and headed back to Crotone!
