May 9th
We were up a little late the evening of the 8th for a
planning session. Once everyone arrived things began
to unfold very quickly. May 9th a group of us headed to
Naples for an evening concert with
Randy Stonehill,
singer, guitar player, songwriter and Mike Pachelli
singer, guitar player and songwriter. The rest of our
group consisted of
Manuel Luz, worship leader,
songwriter, teacher and speaker,
Kirk Allen, drummer
and previous experienced missions coordinator for
Spain, teacher, songwriter and worship leader. This was
a fun group. Easy to get along with and very funny! That
made our two hour drive to Naples great. Our driver and
his wife were unable to speak English so we listened to
Randy and Mike tell jokes while Manuel sat in the front
and tried to communicate with
Vito and Chiara.











Once we arrived at Douglas' church in Naples we were
able to have a short briefing time where we discussed
what would be happening at the evening concert and
the next day during the conference. Manuel Luz was our
point person and under the cultural circumstances did a
great job. I found him to be organized and very
responsible regarding giving himself fully to the cause. I
also found this true of Kirk Allen.
The concert went very well. Many of the Italian  
Christians knew of Randy Stonehill and his songs from
previous contact. Randy is an excellent singer and Mike
a superb guitarist. The audience really seemed to enjoy
the concert. We learned that most Italians respect
excellence and schooling probably because they find it
difficult to have those things for themselves. We
discovered that many people do not grow up with
instruments in their homes.













After the concert we had a very late dinner at an Italian
restaurant that stayed open just for us. They made us
the most amazing pizza I have ever tasted. The crust
was wonderful and cooked in a real fired oven.
Fantastic, but so late to be eating! After dinner we made
our way to a hotel that had been pre-booked for our
group. Vito and Chiara were able to stay the night also.
That was a treat for them. They live in a evangelical tent
community. More about that later.
May 10th
May 10th we woke to a continental breakfast Italian
style. Different than American for sure. There were
some interesting foods! Manuel and me were the first to
make it to breakfast, he with his laptop and me with my
camera. We had learned the evening before during
dinner that the mafia controls Naples. Because of some
bad decisions that have been made, there is no
garbage pick up!
