Today I get to meet with the mission president's wife and three other sister missionaries to talk about ways that we as trainers and as traveling sisters can positively affect the mission culture. Because President and Sister Wall live in Baton Rouge, and my companion and I live in Metairie (which is 67 miles away), the office elders came to our apartment yesterday evening to pick us up and drive us to Baton Rouge.
While on the interstate, on the way to Metairie, they ran out of gas.
Since there were four elders in the car, two of them walked from the car to a gas station, where they bought a gallon of water. They poured the water out, and then bought a gallon of gas at the pump. Then they walked back to the car and made a newspaper funnel to pour the gas from the water jug into the car's gas tank.
Oh, and they got this on video.
I guess there's a reason why our mission's Emergency Plan asks that we keep our car's gas tank always at least half-full.
