Our first ASL meeting! Wow!

Tonight our first meeting with ASL! La Fuente is our congregation and we enjoyed every bit about it!
Wow meeting tonight was just amazing we officially got to talk more one on one with our fellow brothers and sisters!
Also we all prepared to be able to fully participate tonight!
What a privilege to be here! Karen and Ariana were asked by our elder Neftali to do the demonstration from the brochure!
I had the privilege to participate and comment 3 times!!! Wow!!! I was so nervous, it's so funny cause when i comment in Spanish and I'm nervous I talk fast and same with my sign! I was nervous and signed fast but at least I was able to comment! Definitely going to practice in front of the mirror! THe last picture is the one if me up at the front signing my comment!
Diane commented and Susie did as well! Both did great!
They are already giving me an assignment! There is a sister who has really bad vision and in order for her to see and understand the meeting you need to sign right in front of her. So what is done is that a sister is assigned to sign exactly what's on video or whatever is commented or explained! So soon they will have me do that! Wow! What a privilege!
Also in Dallas we used to using a video camera and standing up from our seat to comment! But here no! You have To walk to the front and sign in front of everyone!! Omg! Makes things more nerve racking! I love It though! ASL! Definitely is my flavor lol!
Once home our friend Elvira prepared us some dinner some Dominican spaghetti and FRITO!
What a lovely day!
