Teaching helps inform Church’s religious literacy efforts with UK Parliament and media
It was an unusual Sunday morning in June 2019 in Flushing, located in the New York City borough of Queens. I and a group of 25 BYU travel study students were seated in the Flushing chapel of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was not a typical sacrament meeting. The ward is bilingual and every participant received a headset. As leaders and fellow Saints spoke during a testimony meeting, there was simultaneous translation from either English to Spanish and vice versa. The Spirit was evident in either tongue.
