News letter only in Swedish for now.

After a long journey, the fully loaded container of 2010 has now arrived in Ndola, Zambia. It all started with many hours of packing during the long winter back home in Sweden.

The container is now placed in Mackenzie compound. Here a carpentry will be established, using the machines from the container shipped from Sweden.

Last week we visited and gave out cloths and jackets to a nursing home here in Ndola (Vitanda) that is managed by the Salvation Army. They care for 28 people with only 4 nurses caring for them during the day but not during the night as there are no nurses available for the night. They are provided for their basic needs, and rely on help from relatives and other well-wishers to provide for other needs that Salvation Army is not able to give as they are working with very little money for the operation of the nursing home. What we provided for them was deeply appreciated. As this month is the coldest month of the year and gets quite cold in the night, the cloths that we gave them does provide some comfort for the cold.

Dear Friends in the Lord.

I send you our greetings from Zambia. It has been almost elevens months since Sven came back to Zambia and yet it looks like yesterday. Believe me time really flies. I recall Sven looking into my eyes few weeks ago and saying to me “Davis I have to go back to Sweden in July” Every time I wonder why this man has so much passion for this country and for the poor. Little do I realize that this kind of love only comes when someone knows Jesus as their Lord and personal Savior. Yes Love is an act of our heart and our will and I think Sven has demonstrated this. 1 John 3:17-18 "If anyone has the goods of this world and see his brother in need but shuts his heart of compassion for him, how can the love of God be in him?" Sven seems to understand this scripture too well.
