Aslaug Espe, former coordinator, started Faith and Light in Norway in 1990, challenged by Jean Vanier.
The community in Follo was the first one to start, and now there are 12 communities: Follo, Lambertseter, Modum, Lillesand, Flekkefjord, Ål, Nedre Eiker, Kongsvinger, Nordstrand, Hammerfest, Bø and Lyngdal.
Almost all the communities are located in the east and south east, except for Hammerfest, which is located in the north of the country.
During the summer camp 2015 we celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of Faith and Light in Norway.
