Actually, I am not at Swedlanda today. This is the final day of a week of continuing education for me. I have been at Luther Seminary in St. Paul this past week for a class in the Doctor of Ministry program on Congregational Mission and Leadership. Here is a picture of my cohort. 
In my absence, worship was led by a senior student from the seminary, Chimezie Ukaonu. He is originally from Nigeria and has been in this country for 20 years. I understand he arrived in time to join the congregation for the Swedlanda Family Sunday School.My radiation treatments begin on Monday. Thank you for your prayers. A few announcements for the week follow.
God’s blessings,
Pastor Stewart
