    Our prayers go out to you.

    My parents just returned to the US from Oslo and visiting our cousins in Sandefjord. My Dad is devastated by the tragedy, which breaks our hearts.

    Such tragedy in such a peaceful nation. Thank you for starting this thread for us.

    Edit to correct typo.

    Love and prayers for your nation from one who experienced the OKC bombing (lost a distant relative) and 9/11. We do understand.

    My sympathies, thoughts and prayers are with you and all your countrymen. Having lived in New York during 9/11 I can relate to the feeling of loss and dismay that must be felt by everyone of you. However, my advise is you can't let hate and fear take over, then evil has won. It sounds like your compatriots are well on the way to healing, but it will take a long time.
    God be with you all.

    Our prayers are with you all. It is hard to comprehend that even one person could do such a thing. May God be with you and the country.

    Your country is in our prayers. Fanatics need our prayers as well because they are so irrational in their thinking. It is amazing tthat he desire seems to be to avoid an eye for an eye. God Bless You and all your countrymen, women and children in all walks of life.

    My sympathy and prayers to all of Norway. What a beatiful country you have, I was privileged to visit Norway several years ago. I loved every minute of that visit. I spent time in Oslo and well as many other areas. Hugs for your healing.

    When I first heard the horrible news, I could not believe it happened in Norway. I just returned from Norway at the beginning of June and was so taken with the culture and the friendliness of the people I met. The strength and pride of Norwegians has shown in the many interviews I've seen over the past few days. My heart and prayers are with you.
