Today ended a beautiful day. It started off wet and cold but ended up sunny and clear. It was clear yesterday and it became almost as clear today. It becomes astonishing when you are so accustomed to seeing distant mountains as hazy that are suddenly extraodinarily clear, or suddenly seeing mountains you did not know were there.

Linda and Katrece taught the children´s class today. The ladies were with them in the hopes that they would be encouraged to teach the children in classes. That was a first for Iceland.

I taught the men and then gave the sermon. In worship we sing one song simultaniously in Icelandic and English. Then we sing the rest in Icelandic since there is no English version of those hymns. All in all things have gone well. We were able to gain everyone´s trust and answer questions that were hanging around. I know they have been strengthened. How long will it last? They need someone here that is strong and can help every day.
