When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

I believe both in this case.
If you are a newcomer (i.e. new converts), one would be at a loss to what to do when they enter a church. One must learn the manners, from rules for praying to even what kind of clothes one should wear (a proper attire for visiting the house of God). And then one should learn the different procedures for denominations, such as a Baptist Church or a Catholic Church, since I believe the way sermons are conducted differ slightly. And these procedures should be learnt by someone who will teach the new converts how to behave and have a proper faith in a holy place by reassuring them, affirming them, encouraging them, and, if necessary, walking with them through their growth process.

: Sorry, Constantinos, you have explained the source English phrase in Spanish and I'm sure Ana may understand better, but this is a monolingual question.
