Fourth of July

Though we missed the parades and fireworks, we planned a little get together of our own. We sent out an email to the Shell missionary community to see if anyone else would be interested in coming to a potluck BBQ. We received a few replies and thought it would be worth the effort. Much to our surprise and happiness we had a huge crowd show up, many of whom are short termers here and we’d never met. We had a great time fellowshipping, throwing water balloons, and eating much coveted US of A foods that are difficult to get here like pickles, baked beans, and real Heinz ketchup.
