In Sweden, spring time is approaching with stormy winds and capricious weather. To know that also cosmic spring time has already come is an unpayable treasure for daily life in this time.

With much joy, great harmony and new plans, Margo, Sigrun and myself celebrated Parents Day.

Margo and I were very busy to translate the Study Guide; the first 6 chapters have been finished, five of them are already printed (40 copies each). During the week prior to Easter people in the street had mainly their trips on mind -- So I had the opportunity to study the Principle to get new strength. Different churches had called to take part in a prayer night held in a park in the center of the town. Reports in the newspapers spoke of about 3,000 participants, mostly juveniles. I also took part in this praying and felt much joy of this personal engagement throughout the whole night.

The secretary of the Spritualistic Unification is very interested to begin study of the Divine Principle. He was much impressed to hear the explanation of the fall of man and heartily gave thanks for the conversation.

Last month, 17 people came to see me and I myself was invited several times. Laila and Birgitta are very positive and ask question after question. It is wonderful to see people being moved by the new message! Moreover, I got new addresses and think that some of them are open and broad-minded. Recently, there was a movie on television dealing with "faith, hope and love". New aspects to a life after physical death were shown and gave a good preparation for the Divine Principle. The churches did not come out very well, because they do not have real answers for the seeking and suffering mankind. This broadcasting will be continued every other week.

It is very comforting to see how God prepares man to understand His absolute truth. Well, may we as H's Unified Family raise our hearts and more and more reflect His nature and bring deepest joy to Him and the True parents.

In Their Name,
