An electrician and Scout leaders will soon be a Salvation Army officer couple Sweden Part 4
It was love that brought Per Lundell, now 44 years old, to Skövde more than twenty years ago. Stockholm native Per met his future wife Lotta at a scout camp and did military service in the regiment in her home town to be near her. He remained in Skövde and both spouses were active soldiers in the corps.
Now they have four children and wife Lotta's is a officer with responsibility for social projects in Skövde Corps. Per has worked as an electrician while being a active Scout leader.
“It was during a youth conference in 2010 where I was the leader, where I received my ‘call’ from God to apply to train to be a Salvation Army officer”, says Per. During training, he will do his field placement training in Jönköping.
Both Peter and Lotta are prepared to move if they receive ‘marching orders’.
“Moving can even feel like relief”, says Per, adding that he would “become the Pastor and assume responsibility with God's help to provide a corps with a revival spirit, one that might be needed”.

Sven, it has been good to read something of the stories of these Swedish Cadets. Thank you for translating them for us!
ReplyDeleteIt shouldn't be any surprise that a master electrician or an electrical contractor makes the highest electrician salary. These individuals have progressed through a required number of steps before they have reached the top of the electrical licensing ladder. They have truly earned their positions and great pay. electrician Austin
