Public Seminar Held in Sweden

The United Church of God on June 24 sponsored a Good News seminar in Mjölby, Sweden. Current and past readers of the GN were invited to attend.

Eleven people attended with four who were not UCG members. Others called before the seminar to ask questions and express interest. Two others contacted organizers Paul and Kira Spenser saying that they would have liked to have come, but could not this weekend.

Victor Kubik showed slides of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor and the "Revival" Center of the Rehabilitation of Disabled Children that he and his wife, Beverly, just visited. He then spoke about what the Bible says about how the Kingdom of God will come and that the world will not end in catastrophe.

Comments ranged from "exciting and positive," to "thought-provoking, informative, scary but hopeful." Following the seminar everyone gathered at the Spensers' home for pizza and ice cream.

The first Swedish language booklet, The Road to Eternal Life, is at the printers in Ukraine and will be offered shortly to GN readers. Other upcoming booklets are What Is Your Destiny? and The Gospel of the Kingdom. The 12-lesson Bible Study Course is in the final editing stage.
