Approximately 350 young people participate every year in the international youth program, and the majority of these come to the Bible School, which is in Sandefjord municipality, Vestfold.<\/p>\n<p><em>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/bcc.no\/en\/2017\/11\/a-youth-worker\/\">Cultural exchange and missions at Brunstad Bible School<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year, for example, we had South American, Dutch, Asian, and Danish cultural festivities. These celebrations are held 8-10 times a year and are popular with attendees and planners alike,\u201d continues Twilley.<\/p>\n<h3>Youth are responsible for planning and execution of events<\/h3>\n<p>Ideas evolve along the way for the young people who plan the celebrations, and they get support and quality assurance from our staff at the Bible School. \u201cThe creativity of the students is truly impressive \u2013 they get going and create programs with elements of art, culture, party games, and food native to their region,\u201d explains Twilley.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9432\" src=\"https:\/\/bcc.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20180223_Brunstad_SorAmericans_Kulturfest_118.jpg\" alt=\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Some of the Brazilian youth along in arranging a South American culture celebration last year.

These young people came from their respective large countries, many thousands of miles from each other, but they found common ground to build on and the results were awesome,\u201d he smiles.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/bcc.no\/2018\/03\/latin-amerikansk-kulturfest-pa-bibelskolen\/\">Les mer: S\u00f8r-amerikansk kulturfest p\u00e5 bibelskolen<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Learn from mistakes while looking forward<\/h3>\n<p>Dedicated work together and presentation of part of one&#8217;s own cultural identity has an effect. \u201cI think these cultural evenings at the Bible School are really fun.
