Language Help Needed

LANGUAGE HELP NEEDED!!!!!!
On Saturday April 22nd, 2006 we held our first gathering of those involved in
cross-cultural/ethnic work in Iowa District East. There were 14 people in attendance
representing 5 different congregations. One need that was expressed was having
people who were fluent in different languages.

Currently, St. Paul Lutheran Church of Latimer holds a service in Spanish every
other Saturday evening. We thank God that the Gospel is being proclaimed in
Spanish. Work is also being done with Hispanic people at the Camp at
Williamsburg. Grace Lutheran in Waterloo has worked among the Bosnian people
for a number of years.

We would like to gather the following info of your people/members who are
fluent in a foreign language other than English. We will then build a data base of
those who might be able to help with translation when needed. Thanks for your
response.
