May 23, 2008

We had a meeting with the pastors today along with pastors from two new churches that want to be a part of what we are doing. We talked about them joining and then the pastors of our existing churches decided they wanted to accept these churches into our group. After the meeting Brad went with Miguel (the head of the pastors in Honduras) and the two new pastors to visit the new church locations along with two additional locations where they are preaching. These two "additional locations" mean they setup chairs in the middle of the street and have church. Yea!!!

During this visit Miguel and the two pastors only speak Spanish and Brad only speaks a little Spanish. So here's how it worked. The two new pastors would talk very rapidly in Spanish. Then Miguel would translate for Brad. Translating in this case means Miguel would translate the very rapid Spanish into much slower Spanish trying to use words he thought Brad would understand. It worked pretty well. How about that. Spanish translated into Spanish for better comprehension by the gringo.
