Yesterday was another great day.  We were on the streets from 11:30am till past 12:00pm.  This day was the national day of music.  Anyone can play music on the streets without a license.  Therefore, we had to get to our spot early…1pm and reserve it.  We set up and were going to do some sound checks on the streets and as we were playing a large group of people formed around us.  It was absolutely amazing.  A sound check turned into a performance:)  We played four 40 minute shows.  So many people came through our area.  The missionary was trying to keep a head count.  He feels like 1,000 people heard us today.

Now for the God part, from what I understand the French are very reserved about going up and asking for something or sharing about their spiritual beliefs.  The Claremont Baptist Church was partnering with us this night.  They were passing out material for their church and giving information out about our big show on Thursday night.  The missionary said usually the person with the flyers would have to go to the person to ask if they wanted one…but people were swarming the church members for this information.  The Claremont Christians had many spiritual conversations with the people in the audience.  I praise the Lord for that.

We were really excited tonight.  The crowd was great.  The environment was good for a show.  Comments were made that out of all the groups they had heard, which were many, they thought we had the best sound.

We have gotten some more feedback from the concert the night before and the Lord continues to bless.  The house church that meets in that community was so encouraged.  The Catholic priest had a conversation with them today and told them how much the Spirit moved through the music.  So many doors are opening up for our evangelical brothers and sisters here to work in the lives of the French.

The team feels so blessed to be apart of this work.  They cannot understand the words we sing, but seeds are being planted and lives are being changed.  Thank you Living Hope for sending us.

Please be in prayer that we will have energy.  We have been to bed every night somewhere between 2 and 3 am.  We meet every day around 11:30am to go to our next performance.  Our voices are strained. We have jet lag.  And we are exhausted.  Pray that we continue to be open to sharing God’s Word through music and have the energy to complete the task with excellence.  We have two more concerts this week.  Start praying now for the big evangelist concert on Thursday.
