KeithLBrown Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I was blessed during my Naval Career to serve for a period of one year in the country of Iceland. I was stationed in Keflavic Iceland. I was baptized at the LDS Chapel in Reykjavic Iceland on 10 March 1998. At that time the LDS Chapel was an old store front building that was shared by the American LDS service members and the Icelandics. I was also blessed to be the first American in Iceland to be ordained to the Melchizedek Priesthood. I would truly love to return there some day as a missionary. That would be an awesome, blessed experience.This is an interesting article that I found in the Church News about the country of Iceland.

bl8tant Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Apropos of Iceland (well, sort of): there's an amazingly beautiful time-lapse video of the recent volcanic eruption (no way am I going to try to type the volcano's name ) at Iceland, Eyjafjallajökull - May 1st and 2nd, 2010 on Vimeo.

bl8tant Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I could just hit random keys and that would probably be closer to the real name than I could purposely write! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pam Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Anyway, Keith thanks for posting that article. I always find it interesting to read about the Church in other countries. Plus I know that Iceland holds such an important spot in your heart. Thanks again for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moksha Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Aiee-yah-foot-lie-ya-coot. Close enough for those of us not regularly accustomed to the Northern Lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
