"Monte Hermoso" "Mount Beautiful"

Monte Hermoso is a hilly town on the Atlantic seacoast about 300 miles south of Buenos Aires.  Like many others, Pastors Juan Carlos and Claudia Gomez have been our special friends for many years.  I gave them four days, Sunday through Thursday, since, beside the "mother church" which they founded, they have also started works in several surrounding areas.  Pastor Gomez really squeezed this lemon (me) dry!  Nine events in four days, plus two interviews, an FM radio station and later in this TV station that uses the calm Atlantic ocean lapping at the beach as a live backdrop.  Above Felipe is announcing, "I always wanted to be a TV star."

We enjoyed a blessed morning service in the church in the city of Coronel Dorrego and then at 4 PM we were setting up everything for a meeting in the park near the "mother church" in Monte Hermoso.  4 year old Jonatan was asking questions about everything. 





A curious doggy is very cautiously checking out a wiggly Perfume.

As usual, little faces were all aglow when Felipe showed up.




 The camera caught the "Happy-Sad" face in a very unhappy moment as I was explaining the "Bad News" that one needs to understand in order to appreciate the "Good News."

(Click on pictures to enlarge.)

Moments later the camera snapped right when the face was in the process of being inverted.


This little girl that I chose as my helper was a first-time visitor at this event.  Many of the other children are regulars at the church Bible classes.

A group of adult onlookers seemed to enjoy the "show" as much as the kids.

We did 5 PM afternoon kids events plus an 8 PM adult service in different locations every night except Monday this week.

Today, Friday, I have just driven about 250 miles and arrived at Miramar, another seacoast tourist town where I will be ministering tonight.
