Stockholm, Sweden - Ing-Marie Hedberg-Kikuchi, UPF-Sweden chairwoman, gave an introduction to UPF in the Kista district of Stockholm on August 18. She reported about worldwide activities using a PowerPoint presentation with beautiful pictures. A Buddhist monk, Bhante, spoke about the importance of family and religion and gave a clear summary about the Buddhist philosophy. A couple, Brad and Karima Tice, gave a report from the recent European Leadership Conference they attended in London, and his eye-opening experiences were illustrated with a short video as a conclusion. Later on there was coffee with cakes and refreshments so everybody could ask questions and exchange ideas. A 97-year-old guest was very inspired and wanted to know how to be part of the organization! Approximately 30 participants attended. |
