The second week started off with rest and relaxation on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, followed by concerts on Thursday, Friday, Saturday (the big one at Trèbes) and church on Sunday.

We are staying in the Youth Hostel (Auberge) in the old city of Carcassonne.

Each day we have Bible studies and worship times together in the Youth Hostel.

The Youth Hostel is preparing our meals, which have included the local specialty, Cassoulet.

July 29. Concert at Caunes-Minervois, where everything is built from the local rose marble.

Carcassonne at night is a breathtaking sight.

We added a "Gospel Choir" to our repertoire.

July 28. We had the opportunity to entertain the diners in an outdoor restaurant in the old City of Carcassonne.

July 30. We played in Puichéric, a small, dusty, village with a very friendly mayor.

July 31. Our final concert was played in this 2000-seat arena in Trèbes.

August 1. We held a worship service in Trèbes.

We sang songs to the Lord...

Greg told his testimony, translated by Stéphanie.

The day before each concert, we played on the streets to announce the concert.

Adam Short brought a message from the Bible.

After the service we had a picnic with the people from the new Trèbes church.

That evening we drove back to the Soudrains' and had a debriefing session.

We sang O Happy Day for the Soudrains, who didn't get to hear it at our concerts.

August 2. We drove to Marseille and got on our plane (center). When they started the engines it started to smoke, and the passengers were evacuated to the tarmac. Fortunately nothing serious happened.

We spent the next eight hours getting our tickets changed to route us all back to the US and Canada.

Our stuff was piled in the Marseille airport departure hall.

Everyone was exremely tired by this time.

Because of the one-day airline delay, they put us up in a hotel and paid for a delightful meal.

The hotel pool was a godsend after the draining heat of Marseille.

Playing in Trèbes.
