living room = prayer room



Greetings from Finland.

I live with three girls in a big flat and we decided to open our home for prayer. So this week, from Monday 8pm until Wednesday midnight, we just invited people to come and pray in our living room. And they came. Different people prayed 52 hours non stop. Sometimes the whole house was filled with praises and different groups praying, sometimes there was just one person in hammock or someone quietly reading the bible. And even one non-believer girl spent three hours with us.

I also loved how our kitchen became meeting place for people. Often we had some people praying in the living room and at the same time you heard joyful laughter and talking from the kitchen. I just liked so much how the whole house was filled with life day and night.

Copenhagen

Krister hoped (see the post below) that our time would be a bit connecting, a bit prayer and a lot of fun. Well, I need to say, it really was that. We didn't have too many plans beforehand and we knew just one person in Copenhagen so we ended up to have lots of fun and adventures. It was absolutely great. Good friends, beautiful and creative city, wonderful weather, picnic in a park, spending mornings in a huge balcony and enjoying the sun, prayers, interesting people, long discussions, street action against human trafficking... It was also really encouraging to meet some young leaders threre, we have prayed for Danish connections already long time.

It's really interesting to see what plans God has for this growing network of Nordic friends!

Copenhagen awaits!

So a swede, a finn, a norwegian and an american are heading off to Copenhagen tomorrow to meet friends and see what adventures God has for them there. Hopefully a bit of connecting, a bit of prayer and a lot of fun.
More later!
