Dear Friends,
One week from now, if everything goes as scheduled, we have arrived in the USA. This week is full of preparations as there are still many peaces to fall into the right places for everything to work out. Yesterday we were rejoicing as we received the first copies of the new book "It's A Miracle" in the mail.
Yes, it IS a miracle that I am here today. It IS a miracle that I am healed and saved. It IS a miracle, too many words to say... There are too many words to describe the miracles Jesus has done in my life and what He is doing every day. He has given me a purpose for life and a mission. This is what we are doing and we do it full-time, all done in faith.
During the tour in the USA we are going to be at the events on the flyer as well as visit prisons, alcohol- & drug rehabilitation centers, youth facilities and other places where the people are. We are totally entering outside the four walls of the church on this tour.
The book release will happen at my home church, Fountain of Life Church in Okeechobee, Florida, with Pastor Dave & Linda Robertson. This will be followed with lunch and a wonderful time of fellowship. A limited edition of the book will be available on all events as well as in our new web-shop.
On Tuesday night we sat down with our spiritual support group in Kvevax, Finland. These people have stood behind us and are still hangin' in there after many years. We made important decisions and had a wonderful night of fellowship together. We all need people who are standing behind us and we do not know where we would be today without our brothers and sisters. This year PJB Ministries is taken to another level as God is opening new doors. These doors are doors we never could have imagined opening up for us, it is all about God and what He wants us to do. Some people are called to be crusaders and do massive crusade in third world countries. Some are called to serve locally. Our calling is to travel from place to place with our testimony and music. Because of our past we have a story to tell and people of today wants to hear the personal testimonies. This is also why we continue to work on our Life in Him TV program and believe that doors are opening up on secular TV channels as well. We are going to those who does not go to church. In other words we take the church to them. At times it is discouraging as we do not see the masses come to Christ as the crusaders do BUT we get to hear testimonies after testimonies about how God has worked in peoples lives even years after we have shared with them. We do not see everything that God does and He do work in mysterious ways.
Now we are in an urgent need of more partners. It has been a rough time lately but we won't give up. We totally believe that God has called us to do this and that this is something we can do together. Today we are still around $4000 short on our budget and we understand that this will be a hard trip since lots of things are going on. We know we are not fighting against flesh and blood and someone out there is doing his best to stop both the book to come out on the market as well as us getting on the road with a powerful message of salvation, healing, restoration, love, hope and faith.
God Bless you all!
Pontus & Sebastian
