Daily devotions

Sunday

Early Sunday morning, April 24

Today I have good news. JESUS IS RISEN! It is perhaps not a surprise for you, but this is the day of victory. From suffering and death to glory and resurrection.

Last Sunday we had a visit from all Salvation leaders from the Nordic countries and Eastern Europe. After the service at Riga 1, they had time to look at the Old Town of Riga. Here they are after the lunch:

Last Tuesday we were at a meeting with LEA (Latvian Evangelical Alliance): It is an organisation for the evangelical churches in Lativa.
Wednesday we took a couple of hours off and went for a walk at the Jurmala Beach. It is evident that summer is on its way.

Thursday the Easter celebrations started at the corps. We met to re-experience the passover in Egypt and Jesus´ last evening with his disciples. We were about fifty people gathering for this evening.
During the evening the Bible stories were retold. We were singing, dancing and tasting the different ingridients from the evening when Jesus had his last meal with the disciples. We did not wash each others feet, but we washed each others hands:
After almost three hours together we returned home full of impressions from the evening.

The day after we started our Easter road-trip together with Ewa and Johnny Kleman.
Good Friday we had the meeting at Riga 1.
Saturday we visited the most northeastern corner of Latvia, the outpost in Seda. On our way back we visited Skangal and Sarkani.
And today we have an early start to celebrate Easter Day in the most western part of Latvia, Liepaja.
Have a blessed week
