So there was this man that was doin the census and he came to this one house and knocked on the door...the guy answered and the census man explained who he was and everything thing so the guy started giving the information of everyone who lived in the house so he asked the guy who answered what his name was and he said adam...so then he asked his wifes name and he said her name's eve... so at this point the census guy is like ok cmon really? but so he asked if the man had any kids and he said yeah I've got 2 one's name is Cain and the others name is Abel...So the census guy slammed his folder shut and told him you gotta be kidding me!? so are you gonna tell me that a serpent lives here too!? and the man was like yeah...mother-in-law come here! (suegra te habla) haha i think its funnier in spanish but it's still pretty good in english haha... i heard that one the other day...
Things here are goin great we had a hand-full of people at church a family that's comin up for baptism so I think everything's everything here. Things get kind of slow in the afternoons because it seems like Ramona's a ghost town..people actually have jobs...it's kind of inconvenient for us because no ones really home and it wasnt that way really back in national city and san diego but it's all good...all a part of it I guess... but things are just kind of feeling like its all a daze right now...like it's not real that were in june already... One of the greatest experiences of my life hands down. Im just really grateful that I had the opportunity to come dedicate myself for 2 years and serve His purpose. There's something about the gospel that just fills me up and it's weird because I hadn't always felt that in my life so you could really say that it's been a life changing experience an eternal changing experience for the better and I gotta believe that's why we're here on this earth to find those experience and to never let go. To cherish what we love the most and grow as children of God making our way back to Him. It's a life long process that's not necessarily to be endured but to be enjoyed. The gospel is a gospel of transformation...turning someone into a person that through their eyes they never thought that they could become but it's what God sees that we should strive for and make our eternal goals. We've got a family that's coming up for baptism and to just see the change from day one to now..it's unbelievable and that's what God offers for us to be spiritually born again so to say and our spiritual natures affect all of our other natures and turn us into a better person and who we need to become. It's what God's plans all about and what we as the representatives of that plan have to offer. Today were heading off to a little place called Julian so we'd better get going on our little yellow brick road there but take care everyone and God Bless!
