TUBFRIM (TUBerculosis and FRIMerke/stamps)
The Tubfrim program has provided funds for years to aid
disabled children in Norway. The program was estab-
lished in 1928 in the Norwegian town of Nesbyen, origi-
nally raising money to aid the eradication of tuberculosis
among children in Norway.
You need to trim
stamps, leaving a quar-
ter inch around the edg-
es so as not to damage
perforations. Then
bring them to the Lodge
for Evelyn Robison to
send on to our District
Coordinator, Jon Arild.
One pound of trimmed stamps gives you one entry into
the contest in which you can win ticket to Norway (up to
$1000 value).

Greetings, Vikings of Lake
Ellen & I want to thank everyone who came to our home Sunday the 11th for Pølse med Lompe (hot
dogs & lefse). It was an enjoyable event with good company and good food. The
weather even held out and was initially nice for most of the day.
At the tail end of the day we had a big surprise with a large thunderstorm bring-
ing dime sized hail, thunder & lightning to close out our day, we all huddled un-
der cover until it let up enough for everyone to embark on their journey home.
(What a way to clear a room)
We are looking forward to seeing everyone next year and what surprises it will
bring.
Tusen Takk,
Kirby & Ellen
Heaven or Hell Sermon
The Pastor at Sven and Oleæs Church was giving a rousing heaven or hell sermon
one Sunday. At the end, the Minister commands whoever wants to go to Heaven,
stand up! Everyone stands, except Sven and Ole. The Pastor walks over to them,
looks them directly in the eye and asks, «Why don’t Sven and Ole want to go to Heaven?» Sven
answers, «Oh, ve vant to go to heaven. But ve taught you were taking aload up right now and ve
aren’t ready yet!»

Jarlsberg Filled Peppers (Jarlsbergfylt paprika)
Authentic Norwegian Cooking
by Astrid Karlsen Scott
• 4 large peppers, red or green • 2 tsp. coarse salt • 1 lb. (450g)
ground meat, low fat • ½ tsp. Tabasco® • ½ tsp. pepper, coarsely
ground • ½ tsp. garlic salt • ² / ³ cup (½ dl) French bread
crumbs • juice from 1 lemon • 1¼ cup (3 dl) Jarlsberg®, diced •
3½ tbsp. butter • garlic salt
Divide peppers in two, remove stem and seeds. Sprinkle the coarse
salt on baking pan. Mix meat, Tabasco, garlic salt, pepper, lemon
juice, crumbs and half of Jarlsberg cheese. Divide evenly between
the peppers. Top the peppers with remainder of the cheese. Melt
butter, add garlic salt and brush over the peppers. Place on top of
coarse salt on baking sheet, and bake in 350°F (175°C) oven for
about 35 minutes. Serves 4-6.
Perhaps this is the result of the heritage repre-
sented in our congregation. When a first grader
was asked how she likes school, she responded:
“It’s OK, but every morning we have to say “The Pledge of
Norwegians”.

Gifts for the Royal Couple Article originally published May 7, 2017
King Harald and Queen Sonja are celebrating their 80th birthdays. This means famous guests, parties and
gifts. King Harald has already turned 80. Queen Sonja will be 80 on July 4th. On
Tuesday and Wednesday they will celebrate together. Royal guests are coming from
Eu- rope. So are selected people from companies in Norway. They are having dinner with
the royal couple at the Opera on Wednesday. Heidi Kristin Mathisen from the company
Tine is one of them.
"It's an honor to be invited for dinner," she says to addressa.no. She thought her
partner was playing a trick on her. He’d delivered the envelope with a sly grin.
The dinner is a gift from the government to the royal couple. 300 guests will attend. Many will give gifts.
The royal couple will have several performances. They are called "Summer." The performances will be
shown from May to September. They will take place at Oscar Hall on Bygdøy. The gifts are from several
theaters and orchestras. Everyone may attend the performances.
On Tuesday, there is a lot happening at the Palace Square in Oslo. Everyone can come and have ice cream,
according to Channel TV 2. Children will sing and there will be a drill show with baton twirlers. The cele-
bration starts at 5:30 p.m. The royal couple will come out to wave. Then you can also see royal guests. They
come from countries like Sweden, Denmark and the U.K., reports news agency NTB.
Guests will have dinner at the palace. Wednesday, you can see them again, if you're lucky. They will eat on
the royal ship Norway. Then there will be a gala dinner at the Opera, according to the royal blog. The gov-
ernment will give more gifts. They are giving a photo exhibition with pictures of Queen Maud, according to
hegnar.no. The channel NRK will spend a lot of time covering the royal couple. They will broadcast directly
from the celebration.
The king received "regular" presents on his birthday in February, according to weekly magazine Se og Hør.
"The biggest gift was spending time with their children and grandchildren," said Anders Stavseng. He is
the magazine's expert on the royal family.
For those of you who have been around a while, you remember when Knut Erik Jensen came
and performed his wonderful music for us! He was from Hell, Norwayand here is a story in
the Norwegian American Weekly that reminded me of him:
“Like many tourists who pass through Hell, Norway (where KEJ was from), I bought a post-
card from Hell showing a wintry scene. I sent it to my old Lutheran Pastor back in the USA:
“Dear Pastor, Since I was in Norway, I decided to go to Hell. As you can see, Hell does freeze over. It was a
much nicer place than you let me to think it would be. If you don’t believe me, you can go to Hell!”
The Secretary loved it and Pastor forgave me! Tim Christenson
