Paella

A lot of people visit Valencia for the world famous paella. On the internet you can find lots of websites that recommend certain restaurants or certain areas or certain times of the year to get the best paella. A lot of people go from one restaurant to another to find the best version of valencian meal. But we did not have to do that. Today the paella came to us. We spend the whole day together some old friends, but mostly new friends, from a church in Valencia, and today they had a paella competition. Seven teams prepared the best meal they could ackording to their own recipes, and there was a jury who looked att the presentation, the seasoning, the densitiy of the rice, the color and many more things and finally voted for what they liked the most. The rest of us could just enjoy eating all of this together with so many great people.

I so often think of how great the family of Christ is. There are brother and sisters all over the world who invite me and my family, just because we are family in Christ. What would we do here in Spain if we did not have our christian family? Where would we start? I really hope that me and my christian friends in Örebro, Sweden, are just as good at receiving brothers and sisters from other parts of the world as they are here in Spain. It is so good to know that we have the same father!
