He needs to learn Spanish. Then preach in Spanish when he has a good handle on it.

What was the purpose of getting the degree? To learn Spanish? Serious question.

Short short version:

I went to University at the behest of God, to evangelize. I chose Spanish as my major because I studied it in High School and there is a large Hispanic population nearby me, and my High School Spanish teacher had a life-saving impact on me and I wanted to honor her.

Generally, I love languages and have studied several, and had a goal of being fluent in at least six. I studied both ASL and French in High School (at the collegiate level); I also took a year of Japanese and a semester of Arabic, and also studied Hebrew informally with the Jewish Student Union all while at University.

Attempted, at least. Only succeeded in gaining full fluency in Spanish, and a close fluency in French. French is about gone. Spanish is not as strong as it was.

I am fluent in Pig Latin, Hog Latin, and gibbIrish.

Believe me, I know because of over 20 years having an interpreter.
I want what I preach and teach translated by a pro. I have listened to enough preaching in other languages get butchered worse than a Texas chainsaw masscre. Preaching and teaching is crucial, and valuable time which can never be recovered if Nostradamus flubs it. No, get an interpreter, ( not just anyone) I mean a great one. Elder Jaun Carlos Marulanda is the absolute best, he has no parrelle. Invite him to your church to teach preach and to interpret your English into Spanish.
