November Roberts' Report
HABLA ESPANOL?
For those who may not know, the official language of Argentina is Spanish. Between Beth and I, we have had 7 years of class room Spanish learning. I would like to tell you that we speak well and are ready to jump right into ministry, but that would be a lie! We have a lot to learn and will spend at least 9 months in Argentina in full time language study when we first arrive.

We have spent the last 2 weeks at the PILAT program in Palmer Lake, CO. Our time has been spent on language acquisition (how to learn a language). We have had in depth training on phonetics (sound pronunciation) and other skills/techniques that help a language learner be successful. In some ways it has felt like going back to kindergarten! The truth is, the best language learners are children. The same principle Jesus spoke about in Mat. 18:4 should apply to us in our language study. We must humble ourselves like a child in order to effectively enter into a new language. So becoming like children will be our first task in Argentina!

Yan Na, a language helper, facilitated Beth’s group as they discovered Mandarin.
