Los Amigos Peruvian Choir Tour 2009

Honoring the 40th Jubilee of Fr. Jack Davis

Los Amigos del Padre Juan announces that Fr. Jack Davis’s award winning choir from Chimbote, Peru will begin its second tour of the United States starting on April 14th. The group, called JUPUSA (Young People United in a Single Friendship) will perform in eight states: Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Indiana, Ohio, Minnesota and North Dakota.  During the group’s first visit to two states in 2004, hundreds attended the performances of this vibrant group of young Peruvians, who shared their inspirational and moving performances with young and old alike.  The choir anticipates thousands more will attend this year.
