Due to a significant thunderstorm we organized our luggage and uniforms in the gym at Ephrata Mennonite School where we have been practicing.
Our faithful loading crew was soaking wet by the time they boarded the bus.
Emanuel Lutheran Church was as beautiful on the inside as it was on the outside, and so were the gracious church members who hosted us in their homes and provided us with scrumptious meals (such as toasted bagels with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and cucumbers). The concert was particularly enjoyable as the diverse and congenial audience was ever so receptive to our presentation.
