Tomorrow marks the beginning of our seventh week in Norway.


GOD IS MOVING IN NORWAY! Our team has witnessed incredible occurrences, and I'm eager to share some of them, remembering that "the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of Prophecy" (Rev 19:10).


To date, we've seen 36 individuals surrender their lives to the Lord, experienced one miraculous healing, and witnessed countless hearts touched by the love of Jesus.


During our initial weeks, five individuals, all under 17, accepted Jesus! We were able to connect them with the local youth ministry and church we partnered with.


In Kristiansand, during the 'Kruss' event I mentioned in my previous post, we celebrated 30 salvation!



I had the privilege of delivering a message on 'whole-hearted love and the gospel' at a church in Kristiansand. The response was incredible, with kids seeking prayer and desiring deeper conversations about following Jesus. Above, is a heartwarming testimony from a Norwegian who witnessed God's transformative work in two young girls through that evening's message and prayer time.


The following week, we found ourselves in Bergen, where we seized the opportunity to worship on the streets alongside our hosts. During this time, we prayed for a Muslim man with knee pain, and he experienced complete healing, acknowledging Jesus as his healer! Simultaneously, Attilio engaged in conversation with a group of skeptical Muslim youth, who were amazed when witnessing the healing. Later, I felt compelled to approach a girl sitting alone, sensing the Lord's prompting that she had endured much hardship. As we spoke, she tearfully shared her struggles, and I prayed for her. She was just sixteen, grappling with numerous challenges. We exchanged contact information, and she gave me a bracelet as a token of our encounter. That same night, we encountered a group of teenagers drinking. One of them surrendered his life to Jesus, and we provided him with a Norwegian/English New Testament Bible that had been given to me weeks prior.



These are just a few examples of Jesus encountering people on the streets, youth gatherings, and worship nights!


Last week, we organized a nine-hour prayer session, hosted a game night for international youth (from Syria and Afghanistan), and shared the gospel across the city! These next three weeks we will be connecting with the refugee youth here in Sogndal, hosting a mini DTS, worship nights, and so much evangelism!
