Black Song Kran is over, calm returning

This week has been turbulent in many ways here in Bangkok. Instead of the partying and water fights of Song Kran (the Thai New Year), there was demonstrations and riots. Last Saturday we happened to be in the middle of the red shirts marching from one site to the other. A bit scary. But otherwise our part of town has been calmer than usual. Now however things have calmed down. Thank you for praying.

These days we have had the privilege of having our pastors from our hometown Västerås here with us, Per-Johan and Ulrica Stenstrand. Today we are going to show them one of our favorite places here: Ramkhamhaeng University.

On Monday our team from LifeCenter Västerås arrives. They will work with the "GOD LOVES BANGKOK"-festival and start up our HiGH LiFE events on Thursday. We believe it will be the starting point for weekly events to present Jesus and God´s lifegiving principles for the students in that area. Please remember us in your prayers the two coming weeks.
HiGH LiFE events: 23rd, 28th & 30th.
