Tonight at Aldo’s house we had a “Love Our Members” party. Since Brazil was playing another World Cup game, today against Romania, we took advantage of the situation. Since members always feed us, we bought a big can of Kibon ice cream and 15 bottles of guaraná to celebrate after the game. We also bought fireworks to blow off after each goal. Brazil won 3 to 2.
Our party also became a farewell party and a welcoming party. Let me explain beginning with the fact that yesterday Elder Camargo received a letter from the mission home addressed to Recife. It sort of indicated something might soon be happening. Today we expected a replacement to show up. Right during the middle of the game a taxi pulls up and out bops, of all people, Elder Smith. To our surprise with him was an Elder John Christensen. Both Elders Bradshaw and Camargo were being transferred, to Rio and Recife. Elder Bradshaw will be a district leader in Irajá, replacing Elder Smith. It was certainly a surprise to see Elder Smith gain. Elder Christensen is from the same home ward as my companion, Elder Blackham. A small world!
