New church planting in Hokksund

New church planting in Hokksund
I have just returned home from a very inspiring weekend with some church-planters in Hokksund, in the eastern part of Norway, together with Lasse Tretteteig, the leader of a successful church-plant in Stokke. About fifteen people are engaged in this new work. They were very interesting people with wide experience and richly gifted in many areas. I was encouraged by the unity in the core group and their desire to reach out and bring new people to Christ.
From Friday evening to Sunday afternoon Lasse and I were together with these hungry people sharing from our insight in the word of God and from our experience. The presence of the Spirit was with us and by the grace of God we were able to speak prophetically into the lives of all present! God is so good!
