Prayer for Oslo has taken place yearly since 2001 and gathers together hundreds of people every year in prayer for our city. In 2015 a special committee was tasked with creating a mission statement for Prayer for Oslo. Here is what the Mission Statement says: 

Values:

·       We believe that God hears people’s prayers.

·       We believe that God acts on people’s prayers.

·       We belong to Oslo and are a part of Jesus’ church here in the city.

·       We commit ourselves to Him in prayer for our city and in our lives.

Statement of Purpose:

Christians gathered together in prayer for Oslo, to the blessing of the city, and for the equipment and inspiration for believers.

Common Goals:

·       To understand the pain and needs in Oslo and the city’s meaning for this country.

·       To hear what God wants to say to the city and the church.

·       Guide people into safe experiences of who God is through a multitude of the church’s expressions of prayer (we also acknowledge worship as prayer, referring to “Our Father in heaven, hallowed by Your name”.)

·       To contribute to church unity in the city

·       To strengthen churches in their works of prayer. 

The themes for Prayer for Oslo 2024 are church unity, social struggles in the city, and the church's mission.

During the open evening meeting, an offering will be taken in support of this year's project. The gifts given during this year's Prayer for Oslo will go to the organization Beveg Oslo.

Beveg Oslo is an organization established by seven churches in the city for the purpose of creating forums for christian leaders in churches, christian and civic organizations, and businesses, as well as to carry out analyses about the cultural, social and spiritual conditions of the city and to set agendas for common goals.
