Happy Fathers Day Sam and Kenneth!


It’s Father’s Day in Sweden today and Peter and I want to say a couple of things about our dads. Our dads really deserve to be honored today. They have lived and live their lives solely to honor God and to build the best life possible for their families.


My dad, Kenneth, is a very practical, hands-on man. He’s strong and I don’t know if there’s anything really that he couldn't master if he put his mind to it J. Dad was called to the mission field when he was little; he’s a missionary, a pioneer and an apostle. He combines building churches, schools and clinics with preaching the gospel and winning the lost. He does what no-one else dares or wants to do. During the civil war in Liberia he still went back to finish the project he started before. The locals called him “Chuck Norris” because he did what nobody else dared… Despite all his sometimes “dangerous adventures” he still found time for us as kids and now as we are adults I can look back and say that dad, you have taught me so much, you are a role model to me and I love you so much!!! /Martina


My dad, Sam has always had a great big heart for people. He has taught me how to simply love people for who they are. It seems to not matter where in the world he is, he finds people to connect with and to love. This passion for people combined with his deep love for Jesus has taken him around the world. As a result I grew up in Pakistan. Yet with all his travels we always did things together as a family. Dad I love you and I'm proud to be your son. You have impacted and touched so many lives by simply being who you are. Thanks for teaching us to love Jesus and walk with Him daily. Dad may you continue endlessly to love people till the day Jesus takes you home and you finish your race strong! /Peter

We love you dad!
