At the age of 18, I interviewed a celebrity for the first time: the leader of a Catalan rock band. I had seen him in concert, his songs were on the radio, and there we were in a tavern in Barcelona, chatting quietly about his life and his music. I remember that he was interested in me and my two classmates, and he wondered how we felt about studying journalism, now that we were taking our first steps.

Con 18 años, entrevisté por primera vez a mi primer famoso: el líder de una banda del ‘rock catalá’. Le había visto en concierto, sus canciones sonaban en la radio, y allí estábamos en una taberna de Barcelona, conversando tranquilamente sobre su vida y su música. Recuerdo que se interesó por mí y mis dos compañeras de clase, y nos preguntó cómo veíamos esto de estudiar periodismo, ahora que comenzábamos a dar los primeros pasos.

A lack of communication and unjustified violence have brought tragedy to an evangelical community in Nazaret, a neighbourhood in Valencia near the port. A 25-year-old man who was a member of a Filadelfia evangelical church (made up mainly of Roma believers) died after being stabbed near the place of worship on the afternoon of Friday 2 May, while a worship service was being held. His life could not be saved despite being taken to the La Fe hospital in Valencia.

The police in Sweden still tries to find the perpetrator of a triple murder in Uppsala, a university city north of Stockholm. The shooting happened in a hair salon of a residential neighbourhood. The police blocked the public transport to stop the attacker, but no official information about the motives were made public in the first hours. Olof Edsinger, a theologian and author at Evangelical Focus, followed the situation close.
