Hello!
This is really just a quick note about how God gave me a great birthday gift today! Our pastor has been in the US since this summer and I haven't heard him preach until today. I was excited to hear him because I'd heard SO MUCH good stuff about him and how he was easy to understand in Spanish. I was a bit skeptical seeing that I couldn't understand the other two pastors that we've heard the past few Sundays. Our pastor had sent a little video update a couple of weeks ago and I was surprised to actually be able to understand him...in Spanish! So, I was definitely looking forward to hearing him speak.
So, today, I walked in and turned down the offer of translation. I was a bit skeptical....I know so little Spanish!
Anyway, today marks the first time I've listened to a sermon entirely in Spanish and understood all the main points. I even reviewed the sermon afterwards with some Spanish speaking friends to make sure I wasn't making up my own sermon and it turns out that I followed along pretty well! I was surprised how much concentration it took, and how tired I was afterwards, but it was still fun to listen in a different language and be able to understand what the pastor said! Thanks God for that wonderful gift!
