Hola familia,
First off, HAAAAAPPPPPYYYYYY BIIIIIIIIRRRRTHDAAAAAAAAAY PAAAPIIII!!!!!! What number is this 52? :) Just kiddin. I hope you had a fantastic day though. It sounds like you´ve had a good week over there in Utah. Lots of crazy stuff happening. Sounds like Carson and Steve have it made over there in Texas! That would be super fun for you all to head over there for the Holidays. Especially if you go to go to Six Flags or something. So here for the 4th of July, we didn´t have fireworks, but we did have hamburgers and brautwursts. It was pretty great, I´ll send a picture. That´s weird that they didn´t do any fireworks in Salem though. It super weird to me that the last 4th of July was a year ago! It feels like yesterday. Time is flying that´s for sure. But things are going really well here in Spain. To answer a few questions, the members are fantastic. The strong ones are just that, super strong. Sometimes they may be a little too strong and drive away menos activos, but they are just trying to do what is right. They understand the doctorines well and believe them, but they are really young in the church in the sense that they don´t really understand how things should run in a ward/branch. The missionaries do a lot here. A lot. Without them, the rama would have a really hard time functioning. But last night we had a fireside with President Deere, and he helped a lot I think. It was all about members working with missionaries to do the work, or really about how missionaries should be there just to help the members do the work instead of how the members should help the missionaries do the work. It all came from the special broadcast from the first presidency. Have you all seen that? It´s super good, I would definitely recommend it. But the members are great, they just need a little more experience on how a rama should function. But I appreciate them for sure, because they are trying to do what is right and here in Spain that´s hard enough to do. It sounds like some awesome, exciting things are happening for you all. Ammon´s going to drive soon? Elder Flint no like-it scary :) And a new drugie bunny. I can´t think of anything too clever. You could name it Marley or something :) Well I hope you all have a wonderful week this week and enjoy the summer break. Love you all a ton.
Love,
Elder Charlie Flint
