PRAYER REQUESTS:

The funds I need for 2008 will come soon.

Pray God will bring the right people for starting a café, and a place that is big enough to carry out the vision.

That God would prepare my heart for all the changes coming at WB.

CAFÉ JABES UPDATE:


Sad news, Café Jabes will be closing down April 19 dew to the rent going up to a price the Salvation Army can’t pay. It seems like a dad thing that the only late night alcohol free environment will be closing down but I know God has bigger plans and for that I’m very exited. The city and community is very upset about this news and won’t let it go quietly so we shall see what God wants to do. I have vision for starting a café, through foursquare, in the city but this will require many people, a place, and time.

BACK IN NORWAY:



Now I have been back in Norway for four weeks and it feels really good as is when you are in the place God has called you. I’m back into the swing of ministry here or should I say swinging of my hands as I have been painting and remodeling a home this last two weeks for a family in the church.
I’m getting ready for some changes here at WorldBase that will be challenging and wonderful we are talking about starting back up the Field Ministry School… more on that later to come.
Wonderful News! I took my driving test this last Thursday and PAST! I now have my Norwegian driving license so I can legally keep driving here, this is also very good since we are very limited with WorldBase drivers so needles to say Pastor John Henry is very happy I passed.

VISITING HOME SWEET HOME:


It was so nice to be back home in the states for the Holidays. It was very refreshing to see and visit with so many of you. Dew to the short time and busy schedules I know there are many I didn’t get a chance to see and wish I could have… my apologies.
My time back home was also spent fund raising for 2008 it went well but I still have a long way to go if I’m to make it in Norway for the next year as expenses have gone way up dew to the USD going down. After my time in WA I got to visit with my sister and brother-in-law in Nashville, Tennessee through the Christmas and New Year holidays.
