Simply Sweden

July 07 – We had a church conference in Sweden for the Nordic vineyard churches. We drove from Russia through Finland and then took an overnight ferry to Sweden. We had a full day in Stockholm and the weather was fantastic. We roamed around the city and wanted to see a movie in English, but they weren’t playing at the time. We were actually trying to beat the heat; it was really sunny and warm that day. The church conference was great. We camped outside at the conference, which was held at a small college. It rained so hard one day that people’s tents started to float away. It was so beautiful and peaceful. This was my (Sonja) first time in Sweden and I met a lot of people from Norway so I wasn’t shy to speak Norwegian with them even though it’s been 7 years since I spoke it.
