Like they did in Acts.

Exactly

How may I assist you in your endeavor? I graduated in 2009 magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater, with a 3.62 GPA. I have resources and material. PM me if you like.

In the meantime, there are A LOT of bilingual Hispanics who would be happy to interpret for you. Also, online translators have become pretty sophisticated. You can try that.

2 stories that will make your Saturday even better.

1- Last Sunday morning we were having a birthday party for one of the men and I told him “Feliz Navidad” (merry Christmas) instead of “feliz cumpleaños” (happy birthday)

2- My elder, mentor, and friend was feeling good with his Spanish and decided to use it during the service and was trying to say “what a powerful service” instead said, “what a powerful cerveza (beer)“ instead of “Servicio” (service)

Bill Drost admitted in his autobiography that he never became very proficient in Spanish, but all the folks listening to him trying to preach to them in their native tongue always seemed to appreciate the effort.

I bet that was a great laugh in the congregation!

With the second one, the Spanish in the church immediately caught on obliviously and started to motion to him not to say that again.

The first one, they laughed and told me the correct wording.

Bro, you know English speak English. You don't know Spanish? Don't aggravate the people with butchering it. Sister Benincasa intimidates preachers who like to butcher Greek over the pulpit. She doesn't mean to do it, but they shouldn't speak a Greek word and then look at her. Don't look at her, just speak Redneck Greek and be free.
