The next large assembly was held in Oslo on June 20-22, 1947. Brothers Knorr and Henschel were visiting to see how the work was going and gave several talks at this assembly. It was the largest convention in Norway up to that time. Forty were baptized and 1,446 attended Brother Knorr’s public talk “The Joy of All the People.”
For the “Clean Worship” Assembly held at Lillehammer on September 21-23, 1951, the attendance broke all previous records for a single assembly as 2,391 heard Brother Knorr give the public talk, “Will Religion Meet the World Crisis?” Eighty-nine persons were baptized at this assembly.
