La Mia Famiglia
by Ricky Doc Sauceda
Joshua 24:15
But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.
SAUCEDA is a European name. It belongs to a family that began in France, moved to Italy, then to Spain and onto the new world as conquistadors in the 1500s. We ended up in west Texas. Our ranch in Texas is now a national park...our home in Spain is a national park as well.
Many mixed blooded people carry our family name now. I am from the original line and it is obvious by sight. I never doubted my Daddy's verbal history that he learned from our relatives at our ranch. They never left, oh no. We stayed as ranch hands to stay at our home.
Of all the acreage of Big Bend National Park, only the original Sauceda Ranch remains privately owned land. This is true.
Sauceda, Spain remains intact. Sauceda, Italy remains whole and is not government owned. My family in France lives in peace in the lower left region.
We await the Second Coming. We are a faithful people. Amen.
