Another week. It looks like winter is on its way in Riga.
The week started with a full day in different airports on our way home from the Bible Weekend in Kristiansund to Riga, over Oslo and Stockholm.We were delayed several hours already on the first flight and we had to spend a couple of hours at Oslo airport in the line, which more acted like a crowd, trying to rebook flight tickets. Finally we got a direct flight from Oslo to Riga after more than seven hours waiting in Oslo.
Wednesday we had a "Spiritual Day" at the School for Officers Training in Riga. We shared our experience from more than three years work in Lativa with the cadets.
Thursday our big flag with a metal flag pole fell down on the street. It was not more than two years ago we put it up, so it must have been something wrong with the construction of the flag pole. We are happy that no one walk on the pavement when it fell. Now you can no longer see our motto "Latvia for Christ" in the street any more. Bu we keep it alive in our hearts and the flag must soon be up again.
Friday I was invited to speak about The Salvation Army work in Latvia at the international Rotary Club in Riga. They arrange every year a "Santa´s Fun Run" in Riga. This year they are considering to support The Salvation Army.
Saturday there was a second performance of our children musical "What´s up Zak?" The musical was performed the first time in our Congress in Riga last summer, and this time it took place in Bauska. A great performance by great kids from all our different corps all over Latvia.
Soon time for a new week with a number of meetings in Stockholm.
I pray it will be a blessed week for you.
