Community Movement.

To have a Institutional mission work is easier. But a Mission Movement in the Community is impacting many more people. To Training other, who is training others, who.... is hard, but exiting. 

We are happy for what God is doing in Ubon-Pakse to help Children/Teens/Adults not to stop school and not to take bad jobs. In times of No-Food-On-The-Table it is very hard for many. They need support and encouragement.

For me Ingvar (Fred) to now meet pioneer-mission-loving-people is Sweden is encouraging. I have this week been to Vänersborg-Mellerud-Kvarnsveden-Ludvika-Vintrosa-Storfors-Örebro-Stora Mellösa.  

Happy to see how people have a genuine interest in pioneer Mission in Isaan and Laos.  

Thank you all for praying for me in Sweden and Anna in Ubon. I am happy to be with our children, grandchildren, churches, friends +++ up to 14th July. And with everyone share what God is doing in Ubon-Pakse. Hope to meet you.

....... burn away bondage.

                                   

When we grew up in Sweden, we received Mission information and Mission inspiration. The Mission information ... we have forgotten. But their Mission inspiration still blesses us. "Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

Information and inspiration gave us a fire to serve in Missions. Also, the fire burns away bondage and captivity.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were bound and thrown into the fiery furnace 7 times hotter than usual. “But now I see four men loose and unharmed, walking in the midst of the fire. And the fourth one looks like a son of God.”  The men came out of the fire, which had no power over their bodies, their hair had not been scorched, their clothes were not damaged, and they did not even smell of burning.

Woooow. After the fire burn away all the bands... they came out to the people again.

I (Ingvar) had a good trip to Laos. Met many devoted and faithful Laotians and foreigners. I received my new 1 year missionary visa in Vientiane. 
Thank you for praying for us and for the remaining formalities that need to be done.

 

Hands of The Lord ... and others.

What a joy it is to grow...... in order to serve others. And to grow as spiritual parents is really exiting. 

Yesterday I came to Vientiane and had to apply on-line for my new Thai visa. I can many IT things but ..... some times the younger ones can do better. Praise God for the young people .... willing to serve. Thank you Kalle in CNX and Johanxxx in VTE for your help ... to get it in. The skilled hands of God and others: "And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord." Acts 11:21

May God Bless our Kings and leaders.

Yesterday we looked at SVT news. Our King turned 80 years. God Bless our Royal family.

We were also filled with thankfulness for good friendship between Sweden and Thailand. 

        

According to AI:

5 000 - 10 000 Swedish people are living in Thailand

250 000 - 350 000 Swedes are visiting Thailand every year.

                41 000 Thai-born people are living in Sweden.

Let us, Swedish people, be as friendly and welcoming as the Thai people are 

.....  to others.  

1 Tim 2:2  Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, 

and giving of thanks be made for all men, 

for kings and all who are in authority, 

that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior.

When I meet people in authority I say: We Christians pray for you. And, they become very happy and say; Thank you.

May God Bless our Kings and leaders.

Thank you so much

Thank you for all blessings on my Birthday. In the Church with its Mission, we have many wonderful brothers and sister ... like you.

The Peace of Jesus can Calm .... any storm

Jesus could sleep on a pillow in the middle of the storm but he couldn't sleep when the disciples asked for help.

Jesus is Lord of all problems and wants nothing more than for us to seek His help in the midst of our distress. Emmanuel ..... God with us.

Yesterday this truth came strong to us in Streams of Grace Ubon. Click here.

Have a blessed week as we seek God and His peace helps us in our storms too.¨

Because the people here have many wounds and been abused in differant ways, we have both Belonging Before Believing and Believing Before Belonging. We have to give people time to "tast and see that the Lord is Good". And so say; Yes to Jesus.
