Our SOS family has had several goals for this spring.
No 1: was the just recently completed mission practice trip to Thailand.
No 2: is Harvest Cry in down town Stockholm.
No3: will be the graduation of SOS Mission Bible College, and then the relocation to down town Stockholm with a new fresh start this fall!!
Everything is proceeding well so far – God is keeping his caring and protecting hand over us – Lord thank you for your grace.
After sending the kids to school this morning, Maria and I read the first seven chapters of Nehemiah... Alicia was going on a bike excursion with her class – so we first had to fill her tires, oil the chain, pack a lunch box, etc. ... After Alicia and Adam left the house we had time for a short Bible study at our kitchen table...
”Those who built on the wall, and those who carried burdens, loaded themselves so that with one hand they worked at construction, and with the other held a weapon. Every one of the builders had his sword girded at his side as he built” Nehemiah 4:17-18a...
This summer our goal is to complete five bathrooms, five office rooms, a café, a kids church (with a capacity for 50-70 kids) and a small auditorium (320 seats)... everything fit in 8,288 sq ft... It will be compact but a wonderful start for Mission Base Sweden... We will take no mortgages but instead we will build as the money comes in... Our calculations are that we will build for close to 400,000 SEK this summer alone... When the Bible College starts on August 26th and then when the official proclamation of the church takes place on Aug 29th we hope to have the main work completed. Then we will work with the details during the fall... When Walter and Linda Zuniga come home at the end of the year after five years in Bulgaria, they will receive a nice base as a gift from us all!
To all my blog readers: do not forget to worship and love Jesus a lot this spring and summer! Jesus is sooo wonderful!
See Ya!
