Spring in Sweden


















































Here are just a few pictures of spring in Sweden! I'll try to post some more later! :)


I also want to praise the Lord for a wonderful Resurrection Sunday service! I'm so thankful for my salvation!

And I'm so thankful that God has placed me here in Sweden! What a privilege to serve Him here!


Easter Sunday also held a couple of "firsts!" It was the first Sunday for our small "choir" to sing in church! We did "Christ the Lord is Risen Today" (in Swedish).


It was also my first Sunday for teaching Sunday School - in Swedish! I loved having the opportunity! I was a little nervous at first, but the kids were great! They listened well - and understood what I said! :) They also helped with the pictures on the flannel graph! (Another big thanks to my home church ladies missionary group who provided the flannel graph set! It's so wonderful to be able to put it to use!) We had a great time going through the resurrection story together! Also got to put to use some balloons - and a handmade spinner game (a wonderful gift from a church in WY)!


Well, I must go for now! I probably should get some sleep since I go back to school tomorrow! I hope you all had a blessed Easter! Have a great week!

“To be a missionary you don't have to cross the sea, you just have to see the cross."

When the Rains Descend

When the Rains Descend
Go ahead and grab your umbrella, because in life, there will be times when you journey through the storms. You see, in this world in which we live, the rains will fall. That is a guarantee. Trials will come - and they are going to come to everyone. Just because you are a Christian, don't think for a moment that life is going to be easy. There will still be pain, sorrow, and heartache. The good news, however, is that, as a Christian, you do not have to weather these storms alone. You have a solid foundation in Christ.

When the Rains Descend is a collection of poems written to be an encouragement to you as you face the downpours of life. May you rest in the Lord and grow closer to Him day by day.
