Halfway There


Dear Praying Friends,
We have just passed the halfway point in our trip and are rejoicing in God’s goodness. Earlier this week we traveled to Mar del Plata and Tandil, two beautiful but vastly different towns, just a few hours south of Buenos Aires. In both locations we sang outdoors and distributed flyers and tracts, inviting people to the evening services. We also enjoyed a wonderful fellowship and testimony time with Pastor and Mrs. Don Harris, Pastor Tom Eckman, and Don and Ruthie Harris.
One of the highlights of this trip was being able to perform classical and sacred music for a local music conservatory in Tandil. After singing and playing, we hung around and talked with the students. Some of us had the opportunity to give a gospel witness. Many of these students ended up coming to our service that evening.
After the evening concert I was able to talk with two young ladies, one of whom is studying voice and wants to become a professional singer. The other is studying business in the local university. Both were very appreciative of the musical presentation and how we seemed to evidence a real peace as we sang. That was a wonderful entrance to being able to share the gospel with them. Pray for Estafania and for her friend, Lucia, that they will come to accept Jesus as their Savior and be able to know the true peace that passes all understanding.
Thank you so much for all of your thoughts and prayers! To my husband, Brian: I love and miss you very much, but don’t worry; the kids are taking good care of me!
