“The enthusiasm and joy among the Finnish brothers is running high. From all over, Finnish-speaking brothers and sisters have come forth and, almost overnight, grown into a large, lively congregation. It is as if a warm rain has fallen upon a dry field.”

In 1971 a circuit overseer held a “testing-the-interest” meeting for Spanish-speaking persons in Stockholm. Fifty-six came.
