These are a few of the most random things ~

So, I wish I had some great ministry story to tell you as we update the blog today.  But at the moment, I can’t think of anything….though there is always something to share!  It could be that we are a bit weary of "writing" all the time, since we're in the midst of another intensive Swedish course which requires a lot of our writing talents.  I do believe that, after the last several days, I've developed a bit of writers' cramp in my left thumb.  Anyway, we thought we’d put together some of the more random things that we’ve seen and experienced in recent weeks.  In some ways, this might be a bit like a photo journal of our fall season.  Here goes!!  You will journey to Sweden for our Våga Tro (dare to believe) evangelism campaign, across the bridge from Malmö to Copenhagen for Messy Church, then to France for our Serve Globally EuroRetreat, and back to Sweden for some of our 13th anniversary highlights and getting ready for Advent.
