Iceland Life

Hello!
Things in Iceland are going really well. There was another all-day protest yesterday, in front of the bank this time, but it was not as big as the others.
I have finaly had time to relax and take in the beauty of being in Iceland. I had been so busy that I had not really seen much of Reykjavik yet. I took a long walk into some of the oldest parts of Reykjavik and past the huge lutheran church. Michelle was gracious enough to let me borrow her camera, and I have the photos posted on facebook. (the album name is "island fegurð")
The weather here is getting colder and more windy. It has gotten down to 29 and 30 Farenheit the past three days, and yesterday it snowed for the first time. Of course it immediately melted, except for on the mountains. Also, days are getting noticably darker and shorter. But I am truly loving this weather. I think I was made for Iceland.
I think everyone in the DTS is starting to feel really at home in Reykjavik. The Father has formed us into a family very quickly. For me, Home is where I am, and everywhere that the Forever Family of the Church is.

This weekend was the last days of Air Waves, which is the biggest music festival in Iceland. For one week every coffee shop, bar, clothing store, art gallery, food store,and museum are turned into music venues. I saw a lot of really good off-venue bands like Amiina (the string players for Sigur Ros), and Moddi, and Mukkalo, which is my friends' band.

The speaker this week is Ron Botha and he is speaking on the Holy Spirit. He is the first person I have heard give a lecture on the Holy Sprit and actually sound like he knows what he's talking about. He is sticking strictly to what the bible says about Him, and emphasizes how the Holy Spirit is a person. He is not just a feeling, and He is not something that is obtained. It seems that lately alot of people who talk about the Holy Spirit, treat Him as if He were a some kind of drug. Like He is some ethereal presence. But He is a person, and He is the same character as Christ and the Father.

Anyway, thank you again for your prayers, for myself and Cafe Rot. I Love you all. Bless.
