Both me and my husband were raised catholic in latin america so when we moved to the US over a year a go we immediatly started looking for Misa en español. We did attend mass in english a few times initially, but both of us found it left us feeling sort of empty. We eventually found a church with mass in spanish and we love it! Music is lively, songs all in spanish, though sometimes the priest will do part of it in english, they do try hard to do it all in spanish.
Overall my 2 1/2 year old daughter loves it and lookes forward to hearing Música en español.

We had the 1st reading and the Gospel in Spanish and the 2nd Reading and the homily in English. The priest interspersed the other parts and I said my vows in Spanish and my husband said his in English.

I love attending mass because our Music Director has included Cuban, Spanish and Peruvian music.
