Billy Graham's grandson Will, who is also an evangelist, has helped further his family's mission to share the gospel all over the world. Over the past 10 years, Will has travelled to six continents - from India to Australia, to China and Hong Kong - just to preach the good news of the Lord.

However, it was only this year that Will had the privilege to share the gospel in Norway, and the experience was so powerful that the evangelist considers it "one of the great highlights of my life," according to Crossmap.

Will spent the past week in the city of Tromsø, which is the largest regional city in northern Norway. "We had a wonderful time up there. It's a gorgeous city," he gushes.

Tromsø was actually the first stop of five cities in seven days across the Scandinavian country. Will holds his events in local churches, where the gospel is highlighted and people are inspired to start a relationship with Jesus Christ.

"We've been working with different churches here in Norway, all around Norway, to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ in these small one-night rallies that we're doing," Will shares.

"They've been going extremely well, and we're so grateful for the fruit that we've seen. We've seen a number of people give their lives to Christ and we rejoice in that, but there's a lot of work that still needs to be done here in this great country of Norway."

The other cities Will visited were Trondheim, Bergen, Haugesund and Kristiansand. As impressed as Will was with the beautiful sceneries offered by the cities, it was the people's hospitality that left a huge impression on him.

"The Norwegian people are very warm. They're extremely loving and outgoing and fun. They love to laugh. They have a great time here," Will says. "We've had a wonderful time. Even when I meet complete strangers, it's a sense of camaraderie. I greatly appreciate that."
