I am so enjoying that everything starts now... The kids have started school, everyone is back to work and Stockholm is alive and on the go again... The sleepiness of summer is gone and replaced by fall-excitement :)! The fall term starts this week, high air, new books, new classmates, new working collegues, changes, new beginnings etc - I am just sooo happy! I don't like summer-Sweden's laziness, looseness and confusion, but enjoy routines, set times and fall-discipline; that's just how a warrior works :)!
New recruites start at SOS Mission Bible College and SOS Leadership School tomorrow - large classes! More than 60 students so far! Come tomorrow, apply and start right away :)! You can start tomorrow - we begin at 9 am!
Pastor Chris Gilkey, Lead Pastor of Reach Church in Austin TX has just arrived - sooo much fun! He is one of my best friends since many years! You cannot miss this weekend's activities with Chris Gilkey!
Chris and I went to the gym today...Friday at 5-8 pm we are shooting clay pigeons and having a BBQ! All our students (both schools), their spouses, teachers and SOS staff will meet in Sursta at Kurt Pettersson's ranch, just north of Märsta in northern Stockholm.
Saturday between 11 am - 1 pm we will have serious self defense training lead by ex Marine Chris Gilkey :)! The training is held at SOS Church on Kungsholmen.
On Sunday it's our KICK OFF! We will start with a leadership gathering for all our leaders at SOS Church at 11 am to 2 pm. Emma Gustafsson and I will teach! Our Kick Off Celebration starts at 4 pm, Chris Gilkey is preaching then! We will focus on our vision and also see how far we have come with our sub targets for 2011 and then set up new sub targets for the "sprint" until Christmas! At 7 pm our vison meeting starts. We have called this SOS Next Step, here we will present new long-term projects for the church.
Don't miss this weekend! Switch your time at work with your collegues, or take off so you can come! Don't go anywhere! You don't want to miss this Sunday for the world!
See ya!
