We have had some major problems with our telephones and internet connection with the homepage therefore we have not been able to put in yet another film in our blog... Here some glimpses of our trip. Yesterday a greta meeting with 800+ students and faculty in Bethel. God spoke to a number of people and we pray and hope that some of them will be used by God to make a difference in Sweden.

We have been blessed by great hosts in the first stages of the tour; thanks especially to Jim and Steve; you are just wonderful people! They have set us up with some great contacts and opportunities... John had a meeting with a representative of a denomination who expressed a desire to work together with us in the planting of many churches in Stockholm... Praise God!

Today we had the privilege to meet a total different group of people; people who being second and third generation Americans still consider themselves Swedes... they have a feel (and sometimes a burden) for the homeland... We had the opportunity to share music with them (great Mattias and the band as they were playing folk music...) and we shared on Sweden as I addressed the prodigal Church in Sweden which had lost its virtue and its purpose. Many older people expressed their willingness to pray for Sweden and to be engaged in future ministry, some wanted to join a vision trip wich some people are organizing!

We will get back with more soon... Tomorrow morning an exciting worship service... 

see you soon, John for the team
