Just breaking: there has been a bombing near the Prime Minister’s office in Norway. A giant explosion rocked government buildings, blowing out windows and killing at least one.
No responsibility has been claimed yet. Whether this was an act of terrorism is yet unknown. If it is and if it has impact on the church, I’ll update this post.
