LOVE GOTHENBURG

What an amazing week it has been, the second of our annual week 33 event entitled “Love Gothenburg”. It has been a week where we, the church, have gone on the streets to spread the love of Jesus. Moreover, we’ve been sharing the good news of Jesus Christ through one-on-one evangelism, testimonies, spoken word and…

Volunteer of the month- Lidia Cueva

This month’s “volunteer of the month” is Lidia Cueva. Lidia is an amazing woman who is responsible for the evangelism run at Smyrna International. Every Tuesday she heads up a group that aim towards Brunnsparken in down-town Gothenburg, ready to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. She loves evangelism and sees it as something very natural. “Personally…

Knowledge is Power!

It was one of those very hot summer days in Gothenburg where the only way to survive the heat was to step into a freezer. Seeing as this was not an option (at least not for me 😉 ), my friends and I set out to the nearest beach to cool off. As I slipped…

Sound The Alarm

I’m still on vacation-mode really enjoying the sleep-ins, quality time with friends, lazying around, spontaneous activity, uninterrupted reading sessions, sporadic times of creativity…this is the life. 🙂 In the midst of all this, I have been having my exciting intimate moments with God.

For John baptised with water, but in a few days you will be baptised with the Holy Spirit.” This past weekend…

Mothers…

Yesterday was mothers day in Sweden, which I was not aware of since I had already celebrated it two weeks earlier. However, with all the different dates, it is the same concept across the globe; appreciating those that gave birth to us, our mothers!! Let’s raise our glasses and make a toast, giving thanks to…

What About Death?

In the recent past I have heard an exaggerated amount of death reports that have been quite sudden. These have all seemed to be premature deaths, considering the ages of each of the people. Moreover, the reasons have been bizarre and puzzling from electrocution at a car wash to cancer, a road accident and suicide.…
