Kubb Champion

We have learned the art of the Swedish game Kubb. Basically it's a game the Swedes play where they try to knock down blocks with sticks. It's pretty fun. I have to say I haven't lost a game yet due to my amazing teammates: Reece & Treece. I think it's because we are all a part of the WolfPack family. This picture was taken after we won three games last night.



The weather is absolutely beautiful today. It's in the mid-sixties, but if you are in the sun it feels like the seventies. Yesterday was rainy and ugly and no fun. On days like this we typically try to go to the park by the river and do Soularium with the Swedish students.

This week I have really been learning about the Supremacy of God. We are studying Colossians while we are here and I am learning a lot from my Bible Study leaders and my teammates here on project. The Lord is teaching me so much about myself here in Sweden and it's always exciting to learn from him every day.

Wednesday I was paired up with Sam and we went to Ekonimikum. We met three guys: Christian, Christopher, and Martin. Christian did not believe in God and Christopher related everything to politics while Martin was mostly quiet. We had a very good conversation with them that lasted two hours. Many questions were asked by them and by Sam and me. Sam was able to share his testimony with them while I was able to explain how God's love for me has changed my outlook on life. I think we really got them thinking about what we said. Martin plays basketball, which is not common here in Sweden, so hopefully he'll be able to play with the guys here on our team and they can reach out to him through community. Pray that Martin will meet up to hang out with the guys.

After lunch, Jen & I had Fika with Milan, a girl we met the first day. She met us at Storkens and we just spent the afternoon in conversation getting to know each other better. One of her friends would like to meet us so hopefully we can meet back up in the next week or two.

Thank you so much for your continued support and prayers. Please keep me updated on how I can be praying for you.

Hej Doa!
