A PRAISEDAY

Not a ordinary sunday. Today we headed to Barberton at 07:00. We went there to speake to the congrigation and to show them how we praise the Lord in Finland. As we arrived, we were told some interesting things about the local spiritual situation. Near Barberton there are mountains that have names all referring to the devil. And there are many witch doctors in Barberton, which have tried to infiltrate the local church in order to drive them off. Witch doctors have been unsuccesfull in their attemps and instead, the atmosphere of the church in Barberton has gained a spiritual unity. Which could be felt when we stepped inside the church, you could really feel the Holy Spirit moving within the people. We have given a prayer request in all the churches that we have visited to pray for Finland and there are now already atleast three churches in South Africa praying for Finland. After the meeting in Barberton we headed for one of the pastors house for lunch. All the have been so nice and warm that we really feel welcome in where ever we go. After lunch we came back to White River but this time we took the mountain road, which had beatifull views all the way back to ´home´. After spending a couple of hours with the families we headed for afternoon meeting to lead the worship there and to meet the locals in White River Full Gospel Church. We found that they had a wonderfull praise band of their own and so we could enjoy their songs as they played and vice versa. Tomorror we get to sleep a bit longer, which is good, becauses we have got a bit too much stuff to do here and too little time to do it, so it is all off from our nights sleep. That is all for tonight, I´m going to bed now. With blessings to all our readers! - joni
