I've been having a wonderful time here in Iceland. One night I saw the Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights, glowing and flickering. And I've seen some beautiful landscape here, including volcanoes, geysers, and lava rock. I also visited Gulfoss, the waterfall. It was flowing strongly despite how much of it is frozen in this currently frigid wintry weather.
But honestly while I've been here in Iceland, I've most enjoyed spending time with The Missionaries Of Charity. I didn't know that they were here in Iceland before I got here. I first saw them here during Mass at the Roman Catholic Church. Then I wasn't consciously looking for their hospitality center as I was walking up the street and walking right up to their welcome house.
Sister Jan Marie ushered me inside and gave me food and drink. I so appreciated her generosity and warmth and attentiveness as we spoke about the sisters' work and what I'm going to do next in my life.
