The JIL Church in Norway celebrates its founding year last February 22, 2009. More than 300 attendees gathered and celebrate the anniversary with passionate worship and praise to the living God. The program started with a parade of flag from where the JIL-Churches are established and planted, then followed by a very spontaneous and anointed praise and worship time, led by Sis. Denden Dela Pena.
Her Excellency, AEP Elizabeth P. Buensuceso greeted the congregation and the entire JIL-Norway Family. She cited how blessed she was for being a family member of the Jesus Is Lord Church in Norway. That same day, The Philippine Embassy in Norway requested that they be given the opportunity to conduct an Overseas Absentee Voters Registration before the Anniversary celebration of JIL-Norway. According to Ambassador Buensuceso, the registration they conducted is successful because many members of the JIL-Church who are still Philippine passport holder participate and register. Compare to their previous outreach, she told the congregation, that the registrant from the JIL are the biggest so far. To God be the glory.
The speaker for the Anniversary is our assign Pastor in Sweden and a pioneering member of the JIL-Church in Norway, Ptr. Gino Hernandez. With a theme, "All Peoples, Worship His Majesty," he shared a message by answering the 3 question.
1. WHO must worship?The answer is ALL Peoples.
2. What Must Be Done? To WORSHIP!
3. Who shall be worship? The answer is... HIS MAJESTY!
He emphasized how the people in the Old and New Testament worship God with reverence and sincerity, love and devotion and above all...BY GIVING THE BEST THAT they can give to God.
People are crying and felt the mighty moving of God as Ptr. Gino minister while the worship leading flow spontaneously into the moving of the Holy Spirit.
After the service, everybody was given the opportunity to fellowship with one another while the healthy dinner is served and shared to all the attendees. After the dinner, I release a prayer and benediction of God's blessing to all JIL-Family, believing that the good things that God has begun in us will be completed until the day of the Lord Jesus Christ.

We are looking in the years to come that as we WORSHIP HIS MAJESTY, the raining and flooding of God's blessings will be evident to every individual who are faithfully worshipping, serving and living for God.
