District Meeting

We drove to Venice chapel for a district meeting this morning.  I don't mind driving to Venice.  It takes us less time to get there than to any of the other church buildings in our mission.  The district received three new missionaries last week; this was their first district meeting.

The topic for discussion in all of the district meetings today was how to involve the youth in the wards in missionary work.  Part of the challenge in this is that in several wards, there are not many youth.  In the Venice Ward, there is only one Priest and no Laurels.  But there is no question that the youth who are able to share the gospel with their friends can have a great impact.

On the way back from Venice, we stopped at Costco to restock our food supplies.  Then we drove to a shoe store for Renee to try to find some more comfortable shoes with some arch support.  Unfortunately, the stylish women's shoes are not designed to be comfortable for walking.  We have been encouraging the Sister Missionaries to save their stylish, flat shoes for special occasions and replace them with comfortable walking shoes with proper support.  Those who have made the change have reported they feel much better.
