Abstract
It has been raised in the Norwegian Lutheran Church. An attempt is being fostered, with an energy and persistence worthy of a better cause to revive upon American soil the lay activities connected with the career of Hans Nielsen Hauge. When the Norwegian Lutheran Church was organized in 1917, the smallest of the bodies entering the union was the so-called Hauge Synod. Characteristic of this Norwegian body are revivalism and lay preaching. A minority was reluctant to enter the union because they feared a gradual submergence of their peculiar type if associated with the former Norwegian Synod and Norwegian United Church.
