“over mountain, or plain,”

This is a small, beautiful chapel in the town of Manacor, one of the 7 branches we will work with. We felt the Spirit so strong during the sacrament mtg with about 15 members attending.

“..or Sea.”
“Islas Del Mar” (Cap de Formentor)

We had a wonderful experience Sunday morning. The opening Hymn was “I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go.” In Spanish, this Hymn is called: “A donde me mandes ire.” The English translation from the name of this hymn is “where you send me, I will go.” In Spanish, the chorus begins with, “A donde mi mandes ire, Senior, a montanas o islas del mar.” The straight translation back to English says: “Wherever you send me, I will go, Lord, To mountains or Islands of the Sea.”

The impression came to us immediately as we were singing this hymn, that we are on an “Island of the Sea” and this is where the Lord has sent us. The wording in the Spanish chorus is so applicable to us and we recognized this at that very second! How Marvelous!

We will finish this post with the English translation of the first verse of the Spanish version, “I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go”

1. Maybe I don’t have to cross,
Mountains or wide sea;
Maybe it’s not a cruel fight
May Christ want to send me.
But if He calls me to paths that
I never walked,
Trusting in him, I will say to him: Lord,
Wherever you send me, I’ll go.

Con Amor,

Elder Y Hermana Taylor
