In need of help with Norwegian translation

Question

I just uploaded photo of a Norwegian newspaper article I found and could use some help with content. Have been entering text in google translate but missing a lot. What I think it says about Cornelius, is that he and a brother went to visit a brother in Stavanger Norway (1953).

If this correct, is Bertine the brother in Norway? Who are John Johnsen and Hartvig Knudsen?  And what do the #'s 113, 45, and 51 refer to?  Any idea why their trip would be significant enough to get mentioned in this article?

What I know: Cornelius was a Lutheran Pastor, born in Norway, was in Alaska in 1920, and lived in Wisconsin for many years until his death.

Thank you for any help you can provide :D

A third Brother Hartvig Knudsen was also in the dock and received them and siblings of four rejoiced reunion. Pastor Malmin has taken mothers name.His grandfather was from Malmin. He is a minister in a Lutheran Church in Colfax,Wisconsin. His first call he had as amissionary in Alaska.He have also been sailor priest on the west cost.

Tusen takk, Oddvar.  Your translation confirms the few things I thought I knew about Cornelius and provides new information to help build a tree branch for his family. Never would have found siblings with them all using different surnames. Forever grateful, Patricia
