In 1928 Gospel meetings were held near their home and Agnes’s parents made their choice to serve God. When Agnes was young she also made her choice to serve God and that choice was the beginning of many years of enjoying fellowship with God and His children. Agnes started into the ministry in 1952 and she spent 65 years active in God’s Work. Agnes went to Norway in 1964 where she loved sharing the Gospel. She returned to Montana in 2008 where she remained active in the ministry until November 2017. Agnes enjoyed some trips back to Scandinavia to visit her friends after she returned to Montana.
