Seville Oranges - Naranjas de Sevilla



It's possible that there will be a baptism on Saturday or Sunday. 

As ever, everything is well with Elder Read and yesterday they were expecting to have a quiet P-day. That's what he was hoping when he wrote, as they were really tired.  Last week they were concentrating on finding more investigators and on Sunday they were at the bishop's house, where they watched a video about family history with him and his family.  They are going to see whether they can use genealogy as a resource to find people to teach, and they hope it will work. 


Once more they have worked in the bishop's garden and he gave them masses of oranges to take back to their flat.  They are really, really red!!  And very sweet.  Mmmm - so lovelyl, he says. I'm salivating as I write this as he says they were really enjoying them.

On Sunday there were members from Huelva in the ward, presumably because it happened to be their ward conference and they were stake visitors. He really enjoyed the conference.

It seemed strange to Elder Read that in Spain they don't commemorate Armistice Day  but, of course, they weren't involved in either the First or Second World Wars.  He says he loves us heaps and he knows that the Lord looks after the families of all the missionaries, of which we can bear testimony.

On Sunday Elder Read and Elder Metcalf met three Baptist missionaries from Texas, and one from Louisiana.  They asked the Elders to speak to them in English, so they spoke to them for a little while and the truth was that they appeared to be interested, so they bore their testimonies about the Restoration, which interested those Baptist missionaries a lot.


Elder Read dice:
Es posible que habrá un bautismo el sábado o domingo. Espero que sí.
Bueno todo esta bien por aquí. Hoy vamos a tener un p-day tranquilo. Espero. Estamos súper cansados. Las cosas van bien. Esta semana nos estamos concentrando en encontrar más investigadores. Ayer estuvimos en la casa del obispo. Vimos un vídeo con él y su familia sobre la historia familiar. Vamos a ver si podemos usar la como un recurso para encontrar a personas para enseñar. Espero que funciona. Fuimos a ser servicio en el campo del obispo. Él nos dio un montón de naranjas para llevar a casa. Están rojas, rojas pero rojas, y MUY dulces!. Mmmmm que rico :P . Las estamos disfrutando mucho jaja.

Ayer en la capilla también vi a algunos miembros de Huelva :D Tuvimos nuestra conferencia de Barrio, y era genial la verdad! 


Es muy raro estar aquí en España en esta época del año. Con el día de conmemoración en el Reino Unido, aquí, claro, no lo tienen.  (Eso es porque España no combato en las guerras mundiales. MR).
Bueno, les quiero y les amo un montón, sé que el señor les esta cuidando igual que cuida a todas las familias de los misioneros, de cual podemos dar testimonio.. 

Ayer encontramos a tres misioneros bautistas de Texas, y uno de Louisiana. Nos preguntaron si halábamos inglés jajá :P Hablamos con ellos un poco y la verdad es que parecen interesados. Les dimos nuestros testimonios de la restauración y les intereso mucho :) 
Les quiero mucho!!!!!!!!!!
