Just Four More Transfers - Solamente Quatro Mas Traslados

Bought from the Peruvian restaurant - below

This is the last week of Elder Read's present transfer.  They last for 6 weeks and at the end of this week they'll be given their calls.  And then he'll have just four more transfers until the end of his mission.

On Sunday they found a new investigator!!  And also they heard a lot from members and investigators about the World Cup.  He says what a shame England lost, but he was told that they played well, although he doesn't believe it!  (They were saying it to console Elder Read). This is the first World Cup he's not going to see, so he has charged us to keep him informed!!!

Elder Read has a feeling that during the next transfer they are going to have a baptism.  He doesn't know exactly why he feels that way but he'll find out.

In the Mission's Weekly Bulletin is this:  Riddle: What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps? 

Very easy.  Do you agree? 

Back to the football:  Elder Read said he knew that Holland was going to beat Spain. But he hoped it wouldn't be by so much: 5-1.  Well, there we are; we'll just have to see what happens next.  Although he's resigned to missing the World Cup at least he'll be able to see the next Olympics that Brazil is due to host in 2016; but what he doesn't know is that London is being held in reserve in case the Olympic Stadium being built in Rio isn't ready in time.

Yesterday for P-Day they were actually going to play football, but in the end they couldn't.  They were waiting for an investigator and some members, but the investigator had a doctor's appointment so they're having to wait until another day.

Elder Read says he'd like to train again.  At the end of the week they'll discover where Elder Crandall is going and who their new companions will be.

Some months ago the youth of Portsmouth Stake sent Elder Read a package, but he says that it still hasn't arrived, so he's sure it's been lost.  It seems that the safest thing to do is to send parcels to the Mission:

Mission address

Elder Roberto Read

Av. Jesús Santos Rein Nº 2, 3 D-E
Edif. Ofisol
Fuengirola
29640 Málaga
Spain

The other day Elders Read and Crandall were at some members' house and he heard some Latin-American music on the radio.  Elder Read had to restrain himself from dancing!!

Probably due to his friendship with the branch mission leader's parakeet, and the loss of his budgie at home, he says that after his mission he's going to get a "love bird."

Fueron a un restaurante peruano llamado La Negrita donde Elder Read compro nuestra bebida peruana favorita - Inca Kola. Ver foto arriba
They went to a restaurant  with a name I'm not allowed to translate in PC Britain. The top photo shows Elder Read with our very favourite Peruvian drink: Inca Kola, that he was able to buy at this restaurant

Elder Read dice:

Pues esta es la última semana del traslado. Recibiremos llamadas al final de esta semana. ¡Que raro! Después de este traslado solo me quedarán 4 mas.... AHHH! 

Pues ayer encontramos un nuevo investigador! ¡TOMA YA! Y también escuchamos mucho acerca del fútbol de los miembros e investigadores jaja :P Que lastima que Inglaterra perdió, pero me dijeron que jugaron muy bien. No puedo creer lo: ¡Esta es la primera copa mundial que no voy a ver! AHH! pues ustedes tienen el deber de mantenerme enterado de todo jaja :P 

Siento que el próximo traslado vamos a bautizar aquí. Aún no sé exactamente porqué o por quién estoy aquí. Pero me voy a dar cuanta pronto creo.

jaja, en el boletín semanal hoy hubo esto:  Riddle: What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps? 

jaja la verdad es que sabía que Holanda iba ganar. Lo que no esperaba era por cuanto! 5-1. ¡Vaya! Bueno, ya veremos lo que pasa jaja .P Por lo menos estaré en casa para ver las Olimpiadas en Brasil :) 

Hoy íbamos a jugar fútbol pero al final no pudimos. Quedamos con un investigador y algunos miembros pero el investigador tiene una cita con el medico. Entonces vamos a quedar otro día.

Quiero entrenar otra vez. 

Bueno, ya veremos lo que pasa la semana que viene, quien será mi nuevo compañero que donde va Élder Crandall. 

Todavía no a llegado los paquetes que los jóvenes me mandaron. Seguramente se perdieron... 

El otro día estuvimos visitando a una miembro en la residencia aquí y escuché merengue en la radio. Casi no aguanté los deseos de bailar jaja :P 

He decidido que voy a comprar un pájaro de amor cuando vuelva a casa :)
