What a Day in Stockholm!

Yesterday, sunday was so good! Picked up Wivi-Ann (Leader for SOS East Africa) in Märsta and drove down to Tullinge... She spent the day with us... So great to hear that they still ask for "dad" (they mean me - amazing...) in about 100 SOS churches in Kenya, Uganda, Kongo and Rwanda after more than ten years of absence... I was moved to tears over their longing and love and I think I must visit the churches we were a part of initiating 1995-98 when I travelled in these regions... It was so wonderful to listen to Wivi-Anne's victory reports after all this time...


Later that morning my new Iraqi friend, Bashar came to visit... Bashar is a Catholic seeker that is longing for the life of the Spirit and wants to get involved in SOS Church Stockholm... Fun! We read the Bible together and prayed... Bashar brought Arabic pastries and chocolate - exciting new taste experiences!


Julia and Samuel Willkander stopped by for a cup of coffee - soon we'll be close neighbors! The Willkander family will move into a town house about 600 feet from us at the end of July, beginning of August - we are longing...

Kurt and Anette Pettersson with family came by in the afternoon for a cook out in our yard - a lot of meat and many great laughs! My Persian friend Omid Dadary came as well and we ended up sitting by the camp fire in the corner of our yard, philosophizing, laughing and just hanging out until long after midnight... Thank you God for such a great friend! Omid is growing strongly in his faith and is a light for Jesus wherever he goes!

Omid Dadary...

What a day! Stockholm! SOS Church! Thank you God for all our friends!

See ya!
