Oddernes Kirke in Kristiansand is an organization that focuses on community and support, especially in difficult times. The church offers various services, including Friday dinner with chicken stew and side dishes, as well as grief groups for people who have experienced loss. For youth, campfire talks and conversation groups are arranged, while young adults can use "Ventil", a free conversation service.
The church aims to be open to people from different groups and cultures, and emphasizes an inclusive atmosphere. The gospel is communicated through both word and action, and many activities are linked to missionary organizations that work with schools, health, water and agriculture, in addition to church building and faith education. Oddernes Kirke wants to create a space where life's challenges can be discussed openly.
