Uppsala: Day Eight
Well, it’s the same routine here at Ribbingeback again. Breakfast, own time with God, morning prayer, sessions, fikka, dinner, testimonies and evening prayer. But there was something that really impacted me today, and I thought I’d just share it with everyone. :)
Attitude:
It is our true self.
The roots are inward, the fruit is outward.
It can be our best friend or worst enemy.
It is more honest than our words.
It is an outward look based on past experiences.
It draws people to us or repels them from us.
It is never content until it is expressed.
It is the librarian of our past.
It is the speaker of our present.
It is the prophet of our future.
Good night everyone. :)

Uppsala: Day Seven
Uppsala: Day Seven
Today, we had sessions with Justin Style and Fredrick Karlsson!
They were teaching us about the media aspects of New Generations, which are really cool! The websites have loads of stuff about New Generations, resources we can use to reach out to the schools, forums, newsletters, idea banks…the full works! It’s really cool!
I was on the cooking team today! I’m just so amazed at how everyone here can cook! I told them that I could probably cook something too, but we don’t have the ingredients like rice available. Oh well..another time then. Maybe when they come over to Singapore!
It was really more laid back today. After the sessions, we had filming to do for the Nordic Conference. I was just standing there, in my New Generations t-shirt, and doing whatever Justin and Johannes were telling me to do. When I saw the video though, I think I looked terrible. Nothing I can do to change my physical features though.
We had the internet connection set up in the chapel today too! It was so funny to see everyone sitting in the CHAPEL, typing away, updating facebook accounts, emails, Skype etc. I think people forgot that it was time to eat! Internet…how much are we hooked on to it…
We had another great testimony night! Justin was so funny though. He has this dry humour thing going on, and it’s so funny with his English accent, you know? He had us laughing to tears when he was sharing his testimony. I realised that many of the people here come from broken families, having a rough background…we are really very blessed in Singapore. It really made us see how every single person has a different story to tell and a different experience with God. But what is really the most amazing is how God touched every single life and turned it around for him.
Another great day out here in Sweden. Nordic is coming up really soon! It’s gonna get busy!

Uppsala: Day Six
Uppsala: Day Six
We all had breakfast in the boys’ dorm again, because they’re still doing renovations in the kitchen. I’m not sure if I mentioned that we moved over to the boys’ dorm, but if I didn’t, well, here it is! Only for meals of course.
We had our usual routine, breakfast, own time with God, corporate prayer and sessions with Brad Hawkes and Sarah Steel. Of course, we had our usual fikka in between, but we all made a decision to lay off the food and avoid the pounds. I don’t know how they do it here in Sweden; they manage to stay so slim at the same time! I’m so afraid I’ll have to roll myself home at the end of 3 weeks!
Brad told us about the history of New Generations, and it was really interesting! It all started in Norway, from a student in the university (I can’t spell the name again!), and it triggered a movement across Europe. However, it was only when it came to Sweden that things started boiling! Sweden was to be the hub of Europe and the centre of revival. It’s just like how we hear about revivals in Singapore, China, Taiwan and all nations across Asia. It was so cool to hear about how God is working His way all around the world!
Sarah was talking to the international teamers about their stay in England for the year. Most of the teamers would be in England, but the rest would be in Scotland and Switzerland. It’s so amazing because they’re all so young, around 20 – 29 years of age, and they are all so independent, living out of their home towns for a whole year to spread revival! I think that’s just amazing.
After that, Brad talked to us about Nordic 07! Joanne, Charmaine and I will be USHERING at Nordic, so for the leaders who will be joining us in less than a week, do catch us then! Nordic 07 is going to be so awesome!
Dinner was really hilarious. Joanna and Sarah were using the oven to cook the potatoes, and because they left it there for so long, it started smoking when they took it out and the fire alarm was set off! It was so funny because the next time they wanted to take something out of the oven, Clara had to stand on a stool to fan the smoke away from the smoke detectors!
After our very interesting dinner, we gathered together for the highlight of the evening: testimony night! 6 of us shared our testimonies tonight, myself, Mathieu, Johannes, Joanne, Charmaine and Linn. I was the first to start, and my testimony felt so short compared to theirs! But the testimonies were amazing. Some of us shared stories about how God touched us since we were as young as 4 – 6 years old, and about our experiences with God, about when we turned away from God and He pulled us right back to Him, about how God is always there, even in the midst of our troubles. All of us were so blessed by the testimonies that were shared tonight. (P.S. Everyone came over to check out my tattoo after the sharing.)
We ended our day with our evening prayer, led by Tanya. Things are very much quieter here, it’s not like in Singapore, with all the enthuse, loud rock music, electric guitars and drums, but God’s presence is as strong as ever.
Pastors and the leaders will be coming over to Sweden really soon, we just can’t wait for our big reunion!

Uppsala: Day Five
Uppsala: Day Five
Today, we went to a Lutheran church in Uppsala. This is the same church that Pastor Joakim brought us to on our first day. It is a BEAUTIFUL church. Really tall and all. I’m not sure if I shared about the history of this church, but I’ll share it anyhow.
Kings and martyrs are (yes, present tense) buried in this church. Quite creepy when you come to think about it you know, you could be walking around and all these people are buried just under your feet! But these guys are really cool. One of them was the former king of Sweden, and as he was preaching about Jesus in the church, some guys from the occult were waiting outside the church for him to take him away and kill him. The king’s servant tried to get him to flee, but the king refused to do so, insisting on ending the service and walking out the front door because he was not ashamed of following Jesus. In the end, he was captured and beheaded (right in the present carpark outside the church). Also, if you look at the top of the tower, there is a statue of a rooster erected on it. This rooster is a reminder of how Peter denied Jesus three times before the rooster crowed, and is a reminder to us that we should never deny Jesus. Isn’t that amazing?
So, the experience at the Lutheran church was, interesting. It’s very traditional, so they had priests and the choir dressed in robes, ceremonies, communion, the full works. But we were equally blessed with the message about how we should love our neighbours as ourselves. A bit difficult to catch because we had to have Arash translate for us, but other than that, it was good.
We headed into Uppsala town for lunch after service. Lunch was fantastic, this time, we had kebab! The chicken kebab was delicious; it was breakfast, lunch and dinner all served on one plate! One of the teamers, Justin, was amusing us with his imitations of Scottish, Irish and all the English accents (from Liverpool to Newcastle to Manchester). He’s a funny guy. After lunch, we headed into the New Gen office! It’s quite a small office, nonetheless quite cosy. There, we had our highlight of the week: Skyping with Pastors!! We’ve missed Pastors so much over this week (it seemed like eternity!!) and it was so good to meet Pastors over webcam! Oh, what would we do without technology? We met some of the leaders as well, Charleston, Leonard, Ivan, Roy, Daniel, Xinyi, Jieru and Nicholas to name a few. Pastors met Justin and Linn, who is Joanne’s bunk mate. It was really funny to see everyone exchange cyber hugs and handshakes!
Well, time was running short, so we headed back to the carpark and got ourselves pre paid cards, candy and chocolates along the way. Oh, I must tell you about the culture of car parking here in Sweden. One would take a good 15 minutes to walk to your car because everyone here parks so far away! It’s the equivalent of parking in Park Mall and walking to Far East to shop! Also, it’s really cute how in Singapore, they tell you the spaces you can park in and everywhere else you can’t, while in Sweden, they tell you where you can’t park and everywhere else is free for parking!
The rest of the day was pretty much freed up for us. We started doing our laundry at 5pm, and only ended at 12am because 6 people were doing laundry all at the same time! It was the first time in my life I’m actually doing my own laundry! Mum would be proud. In the meantime, we had dinner, watched a movie and snacked. Linn, Joanne and I were watching ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’, but Joanne was so tired she knocked out halfway through the movie!
Laundy, laundry, laundry. The chore.
The concert team should be coming in tomorrow, so let’s wait up for that!
In the meantime…
Jesus alskar dej. :)

Uppsala: Day Four
Uppsala: Day Four
Today, KS touched down in Sweden! So now we’ve four in our team!
Today, KS touched down in Sweden! So now we’ve four in our team!
KS, Johannes and Mathieu (from Le France!)
It was great to have KS here. It was so funny when KS was freezing to death and the rest of us were telling him that it was actually quite warm.
We went to Skansen, which is like little Sweden. Everything you can find in Sweden can be found in Skansen! It was super cool because it’s almost like a little zoo, there’re bears and moose and otters and owls and wolves and foxes and such. And you can find little houses, traditional Swedish houses and all.
Super unglam shot of KS, myself, Tanya and Clara
Little house in Skansen
Duck!!
Horse!!
Bear!!
Moose!
(Do you know, they are actually a real threat in Sweden? They can cause major car accidents and all! Just a little moose!)
Fox!!
Seal!!
View of Stockholm from Skansen
Joanne, myself and Clara!
Stockholm...is beautiful.
Streets of Stockholm (shopping!)
Oh come to Singapore quick...
Cafe in Stockholm (coffee is reaallly good..)
After that we headed downtown to Stockholm!! Stockholm was amazing, it was so beautiful! You’d be amazed, because everyone dresses so well here! We did some shopping (in fact, we shopped the whole day!), bought great stuff from H&M! Joanne bought some earrings and a pair of sunglasses, and I bought a nice pink coat! A beauty.
Well, not much to say except that we shopped a lot!!
See you soon, so wait up for Day Five!!

Uppsala: Day Three
Uppsala, Day Three.
This morning, I couldn’t really wake up. I had noble intentions of waking up at 6am in the morning, but could only pry my eyes open at 7am. Nonetheless, it was good to know that I wasn’t the only one. After taking my shower, 7.30am at that time, I was encouraged to see that Joanne was still cosy in dream land.
Well, to be fair, Joanne was working hard at night when I was busy snoring away.
After our breakfast, quiet time, prayer and worship session, we stayed in the chapel for our combined (both international and Swedish teamers) session of oral communication. Our speaker, Annie, taught us the basics of public speaking, and we learnt quite a lot about it! This is really crucial because we will be doing a lot of public speaking once we get back to Singapore.
Today’s fikka was interesting. We had cake! The cake was absolutely delicious, I must say! Very sweet and creamy…yum.
After the session, the international teamers headed upstairs for individual presentations. The rest of the international teamers, not including us, had to make a short presentation about New Generations, and this particular presentation was to the pastors they will be sharing New Generations to. Everyone did such a great job (really set the standards for us to follow!), they were all so confident and passionate about what they were sharing! Definitely something that all of us can learn!
And so, more fikka and free time! In fact, it’s free time now, that’s why we’re blogging. We will be visiting Word of Life church tonight for a youth meeting, where Pastor Ulf Ekman is preaching! This is an opportunity of a lifetime, because Pastor Ulf only preaches here twice a year, and this year, it was specially arranged so that we can meet the man of God in person! We’re looking forward to having KS over here too; he’s arriving tomorrow morning! Also, tomorrow we’ll be going to Stockholm to do some sight-seeing and shopping!

Uppsala: Day 3 (Livets Ord)
Last night’s meeting with Pastor Ulf Ekman was AWESOME! We were at Livets Ord (a.k.a Word of Life Church) for the youth conference, seated at the second row right behind Pastor Ulf!
We had to put on headsets for the translation, but the service was simply fantastic. We were busy scribbling notes (5 – 6 pages worth!) and received so much from him! After the service, Arash, one of the New Generation team leaders, introduced us to Pastor Ulf! Like, WOAH. We had a tour around Livets Ord, and finally settled in the cafeteria for (more) fikka. It was really cool; they had a foosball table, a pool table and even a live band playing! The bassist of this band is a 14-year-old girl, who was also playing on the worship team earlier on! Joanne and I were so stunned by this girl, we went up to her to say hi and tell her how awesome she was earlier on. It turns out that her whole family’s into music! Her brother plays the keyboard, with her other relatives on the drums and doing the sound.

So it was a long ride back home (I can’t blog much about the long rides, I’m asleep most of the time) and there was fog! The fog was quite cool..because in Singapore if you see mist, it’s mostly just the haze.
The next day’s gonna be even more exciting.
Uppsala: Day Two
Uppsala, Day Two
If there’s a culture apart from fikka that one needs to get used to in Sweden, it’s waking up early in the morning. Early, being 6 – 7am in the morning.
Gasp.
But it’s not that difficult really (I personally woke up at 6.30am in the morning, on ONE ring of my alarm clock, to get a nice hot shower), because the sun rises at around 6 am in the morning. The day stretches much longer here, and the sun only sets at around 8 – 8.30pm maybe? Everyone goes to sleep at around 10pm here (also completely unheard of in Singapore).
The programme for the day would be the same for the rest of the trip; breakfast in the morning, own time with God, prayer and worship then the first session of the day. For today, we had sessions with Pastor Joakim! We went through the 7 reasons why youths are important, and then practical tips on how to keep New Generations a neutral body when it comes to Christian issues of doctrine and baptism. We realised how important it is to keep New Generations as such, because this prevents conflict amongst churches, and also keeps us focused on our two main aims of prayer and outreach.
The last programme for the day was the prayer and worship session for Nordic. We went to the small chapel and had a quiet worship session; but make no mistake, though it was not something that we at Heart of God church are used to (loud music, full band etc), it is equally anointed and powerful. With just one guitar, a piano and two main singers, all the New Generation teamers came together to worship one God and pray for Nordic. The atmosphere of worship was so strong, Joanne, Charmaine and I retreated to our bunks after the session to continue praying and worshipping in the presence of God. Our physical bodies are so far away from home, but our spirits remain rooted at home all the same. J
Of course, we had much fikka in between. One would be amazed at how much we eat around here! We have about 5 meals a day! But no complaints here, the food is really good. And to think I actually packed a whole luggage of food…
Speaking of which, my food DID come in handy at the end of the day. I brought instant noodles (two packets of 8 instant noodles each), so Joanne and I decided to have them for supper. Two of the teamers, Anna and Sofia, were quite intrigued by our noodles so we had a mini cultural exchange programme right there in our humble kitchen. It was quite hilarious to see their reaction towards spicy food! So we stayed and talked to them over supper, and really had a good time.
It was 11pm by the time everything ended…so that’s it. Nothing else TOO interesting happened…no more midnight treks into the forest…it was a good night’s sleep.
