On my way to Africa..

I´m on my way to Malawi, leaving next Monday. I´m going to visit our DTS-team there. Please, keep that trip in your prayers.. :)

Maybe I´ll post something more after my trip :)

Be blessed and thanks for your prayers!!

Hektisiä päiviä..

These last days have been full of action and meeting people. Which is nice!! But I´m also looking forward tonight.. Just spending some time on my own and with God..

Christmas was good. It was so nice to be at home and have a "traditional" Christmas [Last year I was in Malaysia.. Middle of nowhere.. Totally in the bush..] and just spend time with my parents and friends. We had a youth meeting at my home on Boxing Day and the next day I left to Tampere and all the way up to the North: Rovaniemi.

It was quite weird to be in Finland when celebrating the New Year, last time in my home country was 2002-2003.. So, this time I was in Rovaniemi, in the Highway Conference and it was really good!!
Lots of worship, meeting friends, hearing good teaching and so on! God really spoke some things into my life.. He is so good!! :)

And after the Highway I had an opportunity to open my one-room-apartment for some people from the Rovaniemi DTS. They were on their way to Canada to do their outreach and for 4 days I also felt that I´m again in outreach.. It was funny how we managed to settle 4 people and their HUGE luggages to my tiny apartment.. And then there was me of course, so five alltogether.. It was lot of fun and I enjoyed it.. But I have to admit that I also enjoyed the peace and silence when they left.. :)

This week I´ve been meeting lots of my friends too; one of them actually flew from Alaska couple days ago and joined YWAM Koivumäki. That´s cool.

Next Monday I´m going to spend in Turku. We will plan there 'national 24-7 Prayer gathering' , which will be 16-18th of March. I´m excited about that..

Yeah, I´m just so excited about the whole year 2007!! It´s going to be something amazing!
I´m excited what God is going to do this year; in me, through me and in our nation! I´m pretty sure He has some special plans for Finland this year.. And I´m glad to be part of that!

So, be blessed and have a blessed year 2007!!
