Some of you may know that Don and I have been called on a part time Welfare Service Mission for our church. As it has turned out, our call is to serve in a Spanish branch in Ogden. At first we thought they'd made a mistake because we don't speak Spanish. But, no, here we are! It is a small branch but the people are very kind and welcoming. I have learned the art of greeting sisters by kissing on the cheek! We have been assigned to the youth who readily speak English and what Spanish I learned in college is coming back.....what a crash course!
We had to Speak in Sacrament Meeting today....what fun! I gave a little of the introduction and read scriptures in Spanish but Staci was my translator for the rest. I'm sure that was a hard job for her but she did a great job. Her dad's talk of course was much harder to translate than my dumb talk but she was a trooper.
On the program we were listed as Hermano y Hermana Maquinan...oh well - close.
