Karasjok!

We left to Karasjok on saturday morning.Bjartur overslept a LITTLE bit but we got to kick off pretty early :) we had an amazing drive to Karasjok : sun,warmth,blue sky,no hurry and good talks. In Karasjok we drove straight to the Pentacostal church which was organizing and hosting the youth conferense. There was a team from Oslo Filadelfia Bible school so they were doing many things there. 7 youth got saved during the weekend, 1 baptism and other good things. We had Borgen stand, got chanse to talk about DTS/MA in sundaymeeting and got some good contacts and people interested doing MA and DTS. Just before leaving we visited an evangelistic center where many ex-alcoholic/drug addicts live after becoming christians. That was the BEST part of the trip : I was so encouraged after all talks with those guys and their generosity was something. Bjartur and I were so full after all the food,GOOD food,that you can not imagine.

We left Karasjok on Sunday evening. We had quite an exciting ride back to Borgen :) No gas stations open, too many reindeer on the road and it was THIS close that we hit one. God send angles to protect us - for sure. My hands were shaking and I didn't know if I should laugh or cry after I realized we didn't hit the reindeer. Good driving Bjartur and good angels God. Anyways we made it all the way to Borgen late but safe and our trip was great.I'm so happy we went there. Lots of fun.

Today I slept in a bit and then Bjartur and I started to wash Mercedes.That was job.It took like 4 hours for 2 people to wash one car!It was fun though. Now I've been packing and cleaning and getting ready to move again! I believe it's gonna be good to be down at Turid's place. Yes,now I will go and get something to eat.Getting hungry here.

Promotiong - promoting!

NLF is over now.Finally.It was a week here ar Borgen where all the leaders,the main leaders,of YWAM come together for one week to seek God,discuss and decide about important things.It was quite fun to be there,to listen and hear people from different bases and leaders.And to be there and part of important decsisions.It gave me a bigger picture of YWAM Norway. I couldn't say too much on the conversations cause sometimes I didn't have any clue what they were talking about - LOTS of new things.But fun!And good to talk with others working with DTS's in Norway.

so now.. the main thing is to promote.I will go to Karasjok early tomorrow with Bjartur to join a youthconferense (80 youth from the North) and we have some time to tell about DTS,MA and Borgen generally.I'm happy we got the promotion powerpoint done!After this event I will join the team and go to Hånningsvog for 4 days.Then it's Reboot-touring and my main thing there is to promote and have a stand + projector with powerpoint running. and of course translating in Finland. there are so many cool things happening and I'm getting all excited! I sent one more application form today to one young man.. I pray we will get lots of YES answers!!

It's nice here now - sunshine and a springfeeling.Helen is coming soon!!I'm moving down to Turid's place on monday. Korean DTS is delayed 1 month because of visas.They have 5 students but none of them has visa yet - it takes almost 2 months for them to get it. Oh yea Lenneke -thank you for your card + Kit Kat!It really made my day. I gotta go to Finland and buy some more Kit Kat,Norway doesn't know such a thing as Kit Kat. Okey I think I gotta go now,pack,do some laundry and call Annika!I miss her.I got some new music today so I'm very happy : new Toby Mac and new Chris Tomlin. New worshipsongs - hallelujah! OH by the way.. I believe we will get some new staff here for next year.. :D I have FAITH.

Now I will go.Bless you!

GOOD MORNING WORLD.

I was bored - I ended up here. I had such a good time yesterday.. first I got to sleep in,relax in the morning time and 4pm Turid,Olga and I drove up to Tromso!We did some shopping (or more looking,trying,trying again - ended up bying nothing) and went to cinema. We watched ''Music and lyrics'' and I enjoyed so much. Man I laughed a lot. We got to sit in the first row - first class people to the first row ay?

It was good to just be in the city.and Burger King.We picked up one guy from the airport - he is gonna be part of the YWAM Norway leadershipweek. We got back home safely. Turid is quite cool, I like her. :)

Today we went to Clarkes to celebrate Thomas! It is his 1st birthday today! Now,actually RIGHT NOW,I should go to livingroom and help prepare for the sundayschool. I will play some songs. OH yea and the leadershipweek is starting tomorrow.. I will be in the worshipband and also partcipate the week. Exciting. It's going pretty nice here,I'm preparing to move again! Helen is coming soon and I will be moving down to Turid's house! Oukkidoukki I gotta go now and get some things done. I really don't know if anyone is even reading this but I write anyways :D Bless you.

I'M SORRY,oh so sorry.

Back in this blogging thing.

I was pushed and pressed especially by one kiwi girl who doesn't know how to use myspace.. to update my blog - so here we are! (Bex I still like you :) it's good that someone pushed me to do this.) so I'm sorry for not updating.

So lots has happened since Christmas I can say.We are back from our outreach (Norway/Russia) and I'm still in Norway, Borgen. It's pretty quiet here at the base now : the students left, some staff left and that made a big hole. I'm still enjoying my time here, it has been relaxed but also I've got some work done.I am very much looking forward our promotion tour (happening in the end of May) when we (me+some of the youthteam) go to Finland to promote DTS and Borgen.And then I wil stay home for 5 weeks.Wow!

I was outside yesterday the whole day with Clarke's and Turid and some Korean staff. It's beautiful up here. Yesyes yee - this is it. I think I will start updating a bit more regularly from now on.. right?? Enjoyable Easter.
