Spanish Speakers Needed

Seeking Spanish Interpreters. Willing to Train! In the Lago Lindo Branch, we have a team of enthusiastic interpreters. In sacrament meetings and stake conferences, we provide members with simultaneous interpretation from English to Spanish. We are a dedicated lot, but we are few in number. If you grew up speaking Spanish or spoke Spanish on your mission, we would love an hour of your time to explain to you our mission, our methods, and our training pattern. No up-front commitment is required. After hearing our presentation, you can decide how involved you would like to be.
We offer coaching, learning at home, and practices in near-real situations leading up to your first assignment and beyond. We can testify that interpretation work is a powerful opportunity to serve and to experience the gifts of the Spirit.
To learn more, please contact Pres. Francisco Orozco and/or Bro. Michael Paquette via e-mail or text message at the numbers appearing in the on-line directory.
