COMPLETING LAST REPORT.......
Dear partners in prayer,
This is the last report of this huge effort for reaching Argentina to Jesus. Thanks for your prayers and expectancy.
My personal testimony of Argentinian people's attitude towards Festivals being held before.
When Luis had his Festival in Buenos Aires city where I live, I heard one family, walking in the street beside me, saying "let's go to Palau's".
Unbelievers, common people with no declared religlion at all, walked directly to the Festival, as guided by invisible "leaders".
I heard this people say: "Let's go to Palau's". SOMETHING SIMILAR HAPPENED NOW IN MENDOZA PROVINCE?

A crowd behind the rain in Palau's Festival in Mendoza province
Last Friday and Saturday, Festival with Palau was held, provoking expectation and a great interest in Mendoza's people, who did not feel discouraged because of rain showers.
Once again, international artists and singers as Jury from Mexico and Puma Rodriguez shared all their artistic talents. Thanks to Palau's message, 3.500 decisions for Jesus were registered.
In the midst of an intensive rain, a big crowd did not resign their room just for hearing this message of faith and hope while this family feast was going on.
In this event local authorities were present:
Government Minister from this province, Miguel Fidel; Ministry of Justice and Security, Alfredo Cornejo and city's Major, Eduardo Cicchitti.
City Major was the one who gave to Dr Palau City's government decree sheet where Dr Palau is addressed as a Honor Guest in Mendoza.
We remind you that Mendoza's governor, Cesar Cobos, after one hour meeting with his cabinet did the same thing, appointing Luis as a Distinguished Citizen in this province . He also received the same protocol than embassadors do.
During these two nights' Festival, main issue was Dr. Palau's message .Palau pointed out how meaningful was coming back to God for any people from anywhere.
From the first moment, it was noticeable how the crowd was shaken by the message which was based on Scriptures passages.
These Scriptures exalted Jesus person as the One who comes in individuals lives,for giving them inner rest and peace. It happens within those ones who surrender their hearts to Him.
We could see how these words reached people's hearts in thousand of prayers heard, giving their lives to Jesus Christ.
More than 70.000 people attended on the first night, and 75.000 ones on the second one to the" Festival of Good Music and Good News " held in the populated Mendoza city.
From General San Martin Park where the feast took place, high mountain peaks belonging to Los Andes chain , could be seen behind. This peaks were silent observers of this feast enjoyed by Mendoza citizens and expected as an extraordinary and unforgettable event.
Figures of total number attendance, mentioned in the above paragraph, were officially given by Mendoza's Police Department. Police set out a security system which worked perfectl during both nights.
It was the first time in Mendoza's history that this public and exclusive place was allowed to be used for such events.In the media, someone asked why did they (Government) let Palau this privilege.
Mariana Juri, Tourism and Culture Minister, answered that "Palau was for Christian evangelicals as the Pope for Roman Catholics".
Under such bad weather conditions, the crowd attended both days, staying firm against intensive rain until the end.
