Church progessing
It’s been a while since my latest post. So enjoy this cool update 
This fall we’ve had the joy of seeing our church slowly growing.
It’s hard to believe that there was no worship team here when I arrived two years ago. And it’s such a privilege to have been a part of building up our wonderful worship team. Two super cool American girls, Amy and Katie from the Church Dwelling Place, have joined our church to serve here a couple of months. Amy (to the right in the picture above) is an awesome worship leader. Welcome! Ernie, the guy to the left of Amy, and his wife came with Amy and Katie and stayed for three weeks , being a great blessing and encouragement to all of us.
God is so good, bringing in more people right when I need to return to Sweden in start of December to take back or move out from my apartment. God might have some new cool plans for me in the beginning of next year; I have been accepted into the Hillsong Leadership College. I’m praying a lot about it and believing God to supply me with the finances I would need for making it through at least the first year. The aim for the College is to equip leaders for future mission. Please pray for me that the Lord will lead me into His ways for me. Also any financial support is more than welcome! From the bottom of my heart I also want to thank those of you who have supported me these two years! I love you and pray for you! You are lifesavers!
A couple of weeks ago I and after a lot of preparations and anguish I taught in the house church in Michaniona, where we meet Friday nights. We started by each one trying to answer the question “What is truth?” in discussion groups (which we normally do) and then I tried to tie it all together. That same night a young man, a first time visitor, gave his life to Jesus!
A couple of weeks earlier two friends of his, Christina and another guy came to Christ.
They are all in their early twenties. Argisis and Peggy now have two alpha groups in their home each week!
Also Vivi from our home Vineyard Church in Sweden came to visit me and Annika. A fresh Swedish wind! Together we went to Philippi to see the ruins after the ancient Greek city where the first European Church was founded by Paul some 2000 years ago.
In the right picture you see what is believed to be the prison cell where Paul and Silas were held. “About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was such a violent earth quake that the foundations of the prison was shaken. At once all the prison door flew open and everybody’s chains came loose—the jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. He then brought them out and asked: “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”. They answered: “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved”. (Acts 16:25-31)
Be blessed!
