Last week in the Chile Rancagua mission we had three
Christmas zone conferences and four concerts in Santiago, so I hope we can be
forgiven for this late post. Christmas
time is always busy ; we have discovered it is no different in the mission
field.
The church has a Christmas concert on the Temple Square in
Santiago each year. This year they
decided to have three nights instead of one plus an additional performance with
an evangelical choir on the plaza in front of the presidential palace.
Those who performed included a youth choir, a small
orchestra, dancers and soloists. What a
great missionary opportunity for the church.
The seats were filled to capacity and people were standing each of the
three nights.
We were fortunate to be able to attend all three
performances and thoroughly enjoyed each one.
We are including the link in case you would like to check it out. Also we enjoyed looking at the nativity
display some of which were very unusual although of course all were beautiful.
It was a great chance to be behind the scenes a little bit
and meet some of the performers. One of
the soloists actually lives in Provo and came down to sing. Another is only thirteen but gave a wonderfully
polished performance.
On Tuesday we have one last zone conference so we will make
that the subject of the post next Sunday. Stay tuned!
