My wife and came here from Finland to spend a second year at RBI. During the first year we didn’t have much. We shared an apartment with two other students and we usually walked to school. That was four years ago. This time God has blessed us more than enough!!!
Before we came from Finland, we agreed to switch cars with two Finnish River members, who went to Finland to minister for 9 months. Then a friend of ours received us to her home until we can find a permanent solution. After one week I got a part-time position at the IT department of RMI, which made it possible for us to live in our own apartment this time! We are so grateful for that! Then when we talked with some friends of ours, they told us that they are starting a traveling ministry and that they are selling all their furniture! So now we’ve got all the furniture we need also! God is so good
We are so thankful to God that we can be part of a church that is full of the fire of God and whose focus is souls! There are not many that kind of churches in Finland at the moment. Here we can both receive from God and serve Him, and be part of the Great Awakening! This is really an oasis for us!! We feel that God called us here to get refreshed, get full of the word and the fire of God and then be launched to our destiny…..Heimo T.

I am seeing something with the Great Awakening that I have only dreamed of but had given up hope it would ever happen. It is the first glimpse of unity in the body of Christ. Ministries are coming together under the banner of the church to serve the heard of the church, the Lord Jesus, in fulfilling His great commission to go into all the world and preach the gospel. Finally it is no longer about one man. It’s about Jesus and His body doing what we were created and designed to do. Go into all the world and preach the gospel.
I heard a minister recently explain that the world spoken of in the context of the great commission is not the earth. It is the world system. He called it the Babylonian system that hates Jesus. It’s for all of those in that system that He died. The minister said we go into that system with the wealth of the Kingdom of God to seek and save that which is lost.
Many men and women over the centuries have made significant impacts on this world system for the glory of God, but now we are seeing something entirely different. Every member of the body of Christ is stepping up to the plate. They are coming to Tampa from everywhere to receive the fire of God and then go back to their home towns and proclaim the good news. -Mary F
