- About Me:
- I was born in 1951 in Helsinki finland. I was taken home by my mom and dad in1953. I was raised in a religious home both grandparents were lutheran preasts and mothers father was the professor(dean) of theology in Helsinki university and all Lutheran preasts went through him. I have always had a strong belief about God and Jesus and I been interested in different religions. I always seen how religions have same roots. I was a teacher in sundayschool for 3-7 year olds since I was 17. I was a voted youth member of the youth church counsil in my parish.
By the time I was 30 I was married with one child. My question was ...is this all there is about life? My rebellous words were...I do NOT want to be a marjonett! I want to decide myself!
Then one rainy day the missionaries ringed the door bell.... My husband was not interested he contacted anties. After 5 years and on other baby, I gave up, we devorced 1988.
I went to a special Nord for over 30... met a norwegean.It was love at first sight... I never tought one could be THAT much in love... we married 1989. We have 2 wonderful sons (90,92). But life is not easy and my girls from Finland are lost at the moment. The crises in our family have sored deeply many of us. Sometimes I wonder what is that great thing we are expected to do, as the adversary atacs us so hard.
Fact is he may have succeded since time is running out... but I`ll do what I can.
The motto of this year in our stake it a bit more brave... and that is what I have decided to be and spread out the gospel on the nett in my language ... finnish... maybe Norwegean too.. There are hardly any nettsides in Finnish as the common way of thinking in Finland, as in Norway, is stil that we should NOT interfere with internett or news pappers...that is for the official church information to do. Besides we might say something wrong...
My nettsites are taking form little by little. I need help in getting them on the line. My son 90 is good with computers... I may ask him help in some things. Anyway I have not any nettsites yet. I have been busy translateing a few nettsites in finnish; Moore good foundation and BoM evidences in pictures and some of the mormonsites. Too many good netsites to choose from, I need help to find the best to translate, those that talk best to those investigateing. There is a very bad anti nettside in finnish, where many go to study our religion, we need a positive alternative!

En ole kovin paljon käynytkään täällä viimeaikoina. Oletko itse ollut lomailemassa kun ei ole näkynyt suomalaisella palstalla? Meillä on ollut aika paljon menoa kun oli pojan temppelihäät ja pidettiin vielä hääjuhlst lauantaina Paraisilla. Oli tosi upeat häät sekä temppelillä että juhlissa. Morsiamen suvussa on paljon kirkon ulkopuolisia joten se oli varmasti myös lähetystyön kannalta hyvä tilaisuus tehdä kirkkoa tunnetuksi.

How are you? I agree, I would have preferred David A. over David C, but they really both very talented, just different.
