Some fun times

We went to Tromso last weekend and I think we had quite some fun.. we had NO CLUE we (Bex and I) were supposed to lead the evangelism in Saturday night and I kind of paniced a little bit but guess who was again bigger than our worries.. yep, He. While I was driving the super duper Mercedes we got a phone call and after that things started rolling and we ended up being at the streets of Tromso twice in that evening PLUS attending an evangelistic meeting with a bible school from Sweden. We did some prayer and prophetic evangelism (sounds scary :) at the streets and I think it was a good experience and challenging as well.. to actually ask God to give some words of encouragement and wisdom and GO and TALK to people, just like that. I enjoyed it! We ended the evening in Burger King and drove back home late.Yes!

This week has been quite different than previous ones. We (DTS staff) were part of a leadership course for young leaders here at Borgen. Some people from Eintroa-base joined us as well as some other leaders from Borgen. It was a long week, long teaching days plus all the DTS work we had to do during the breaks we had from the school. So we were running around this week more or less :) But I am so happy for this week. I learned some new and important things as a young leader. Especially the last day when Jan Torland was teaching about Visionary leaders.. wow. In the end all the "older" leaders as Jan, Terje and Leif, prayed and prophesied over all of us and it was very powerful. Go God again!!

Well well.. now we are only waiting for the Finnish DTS to join us on Sunday!! Yippee! Finally! Tonight we had a pizza+movie night at our place and we still (Annika and I) have to work quite a lot this weekend but then.. we get ready to party with the FINNS! I am honestly so happy they are coming. And I can not believe we are almost done with this lecture phase.. only 4 weeks left and we are going home, it is crazy. Preparation for Mali is going fine and we sent our visa applications and passports last week. You guys can pray for our visas and passports to arrive safely and that everything would go just fine. I am still sometimes thinking about our last year's experience and praying hard it would not happen again. Trust God - it will be fine. Now I am seriously going to bed.. here some pics from last week, when we went to a concert.
