Today we've decided to mix things up by doing our shopping somewhere else... the commissary! Its so much cheaper, and this is the first time in my mission I've been anywhere near the Naval Air base they have here, so using my super ID card abilities (which expires in two months) we'll be able to get on base and use the commissary! I hope. Hooray for cheap foods!
Also this week, I had the chance to call 911! Yay! We passed a small brush fire next to a vineyard on our way into town. It was pretty small, but those things can get pretty serious out here, especially this time of year, so we called it in, and then sat to watch the fireman come take care of it. I like to think that I just saved the whole town, or something.
We had our Zone Conference this last week, in which we learned how to get the members really involved in missionary work, because we can't really do it without them. We learned that the best way to get somebody on your side is to be their friend, get to know them. You'll be more likely to work harder for them, and they'll be more likely to work harder for you. Everyone wins! It might seem difficult, but if you work towards it, everyone can be your friend, and the more friends you have, the more friends other people have. Pretty soon everyone loves each other and wants to help each other. We all win, right? It's a hippie dream we should all strive for. To truly love one another as our father in heaven has love for us. It will change our very habits.
I love and miss you all!
