We shall celebrate LIFE!!!

Hallelujah!!!

Now it’s beginning to be more and more finished in our house. Today the inside stairway came –
so beautiful, in ash. Tomorrow the handrails for the stairway – which Håkan tried out a week or so ago – are coming.

All the sweet rolls, seven types of cookies and four sweet breads, together with cakes – which will be eaten on Saturday – are ready and waiting for you!

If you’re hungry, there are different types of quiche, salad and three different homebaked breads. There should be enough, otherwise we’ll take something else out of the freezer.

We shall celebrate LIFE!!! We’ll do it with a concert in Uddevalla Church at 6 pm on the 1st of May. When Håkan was hovering between life and death, when the doctors didn’t give much hope, I thought from my hospital bed: “Where should we have the funeral?” After a little while: “Håkan shall not die. He is a man of God. His life shall not end in this way. He has more to give…”

Instead, we shall have a concert – when Håkan is better – a thanksgiving concert in Uddevalla Church. And now we are there!

Our children, with friends, will sing and play music in the church, and at the same time, make a live recording which will become a CD – several songs which meant a lot during the difficult times, and even new ones which have come into being during the year.

To live in thanksgiving is the key to a life in victory, in the middle of the fight for life. Looking back, now more than 13 months later, we can all see that death has turned to life.

God’s total love and care for us have carried us. All the support from people has helped us ”sooo” much.

Now you are welcome to celebrate life with us on Saturday, first at home with us at Sigelhultsvägen 22, and then we’ll finish up with the concert in Uddevalla Church.

Take a look at some of the new pictures, on the righthand side…

Thanks for everything!

God bless you all!!!
