In just one week we will be arriving in Charlotte, North Carolina, and begin our seven week USA tour – we are expecting great times with friends and family. Our trip has a three-fold purpose: 1) five weeks spent visiting as many of our supporters as possible, 2) two weeks of needed R&R, and 3) the wedding of our son Timothy on July 5th!

I really embraced the concept of change by transforming ways of thinking and behaving and could envisage “change”, not only in the context of private enterprise, but also in the family unit and in whole communities. I thought the material supporting the course excellent, simple to understand but extremely comprehensive in content. I was so encouraged to learn that God has blessed many, both financially and spiritually through Focus Business School and He is waiting to do the same here in Bosnia. Thank you for sharing this gift with us.” – Gina ForbesINSTRUCTORS FOR THE FIRST TRAINING OF TEACHERS IN BiH: (1) André & David Andersson (2) B-Å Svensson & Mikael Nimmersjö (3) Thomas Lennartsson
