September 18th we launched a fourth Bible School year. We started in autumn of 2020 with 110 students, second year we had around 50 and last year around 40 students. We were expecting to have this year only 30 participants. We were mistaken. We started fourth year with over 50 students again. A little more than half of them gather every Monday to Home of Hope and rest are watching online. We also have three churches join as remote campuses. They gather their people to watch the Bible School live stream together. We are so thankful for the Lord’s blessing we have experienced and for the opportunity to proclaim the Word of God to Estonians.
I’m currently in the U.S. on a trip. October 1-4 I participated with my assistant Mattias Haamer the Annual Gathering of the Lutheran Congregations in Mission fo Christ. Currently we are in Richland WA and will be visiting different churches in the States until October 15th.
You’ll find our trip schedule below and you are welcome to join any of the meetings. You may share this information with everyone who might want to meet us. Two meetings have already passed, but I will still write them down here.
