Das erste Mal öffentlich auf Schwedisch – ziemlich spannend und doch irgendwie was besonderes. (Alle von Euch, die schon mal in Fremdsprachen auftreten, können sich sicher an das erste Mal erinnern!) Der Gottesdienst war ziemlich voll, und mein Interviewpartner stellte Fragen die ich SO gar nicht erwartet hatte und forderte damit meinen aktiven Wortschatz ziemlich heraus. Aber es sind keine Tomaten, Liederbücher oder Regenschirme nach vorne geflogen, es ist auch niemand eingeschlafen in den 10 Minuten. Man hat sogar gelacht – war vielleicht was peinliches, was ich da von mir gegeben habe. (Nein, natürlich nicht) Hinterher gab es eine Reihe kurzer, aber sehr guter Gespräche und wir werden sehen, wie der Herr weitersegnet. 
It worked out, speaking for the first time publicly in Swedish. It really felt kind of challenging and unique. (All of you who have done this in another language know probably what I'm talking about!) The church was quite well filled, and my interview partner deviated a little from the questions I expected and by that he demanded much of my active vocabulary. But there were no tomatoes, Bibles or umbrellas flying towards me, nobody felt asleep in these 10 minutes. At some occasions they even laughed! Maybe I said something embarrassing…? Afterwards I had a number of short but very good conversations. We’ll see, in which way the Lord continues to bless.
