Thanks Sean, I appreciate!!! The Reverend's sermon is extremely powerful! I acctually feared for HM's coronary system ;p but apparently she withstood this blow as well!!!
She's made of pretty tough stuff, I would say!
Indeed 😂
By the way I just forgot to tell you one tricky episode about the preacher’s sermon... The translator made a mistake... she mistook the word balm with the word bomb 🤣 so the preacher said “a healing balm” and she translated “a healing bomb” ( she literally said una bomba guaritrice)... I guess there is no real difference between the pronunciation of the two words...
/bɒm/ /bɑːm/
Fortunately the mistranslation sort of also works.
