Our Largest Audience Yet

The morning brought more sightseeing.  We visited Tigre, a city on the outskirts of Buenos Aires.  Part of this city is on a river delta.  Some people live on the islands of the river delta, taking “boat busses” to get to and from the mainland.  Without roads, they still have addresses based on the name of their house and which river they live on, mail service by boat, “school boat busses” that take the kids to and from school, and even “grocery shop boats” that stop by.

After some more shopping and some down time in the afternoon, we went on to deliver two concerts in the evening.  The first was at a local Evangelical Christian church.  We were delayed due to an accident on the highway that caused some pretty bad traffic, and arrived for our concert 20 minutes after it was supposed to begin.  They waited patiently for us, though.  The church’s children’s choir began by singing two songs for us, and then we proceeded with our concert which was, once again, very well received.

Then, after a quick dinner, we headed over to the television studios of Canal Luz, a local Christian television station.  We performed a concert in their studio that was broadcast to all of Argentina on TV, and to the entire world via the Internet.  Throughout the program, viewers called in to ask questions about us.  Through this, we learned that we had viewers from every part of Argentina, and some of the people who have seen us in person in the recent weeks tuned in as well.  Thanks to all of our friends and family who watched from home!

We then stopped for ice cream and arrived back at the hotel after midnight once again.

Our trip is drawing to a close.  We have a concert on Saturday evening, and we’re singing for two church services on Sunday morning, and then we pack up and head home.  Keep checking back for the last few updates!
