The Spanish Speaking Missionaries Easter Singing

This was the second Spanish Zone service project we organized.  The first was helping at a food bank featured previously.  Here we sang at a Spanish senior assisted living center, called Center Home.  The piano they said we could use for solitary performances was a very old, water damaged organ.  The veneer was stripping off and we had trouble getting it to play, but at least we had something.  Unfortunately those offering to solo perform were not familiar with playing on an organ but a piano.  The result was painful for some but okay for others.  The best part was the missionaries singing in Spanish.  I was able to introduce the missionaries through an interpreter and it went well.  After the singing the missionaries then went into the audience and did what missionaries do best-fellow ship and minister one by one!  We had purchased (Temu) small heart pins which we gave to the missionaries to give to the people they talked to.  It was a small red heart outlined with gold and with the "Jesus" in the center in gold.  Tese were a hit.  Aside from the accent mark, Jesus is spelled the same in Spanish and English.

The residents loved our missionaries and many sang along when the song were not specific to the LDS song system.  The service was a hit and the residents and administration wanted us to return.  We will set it up.  Just as important the missionaries loved it and we promised we would set up a service project for them once per month.

This is the pin the missionaries gave out!
