IceNews this week reported that Iceland has been named the world’s most peaceful country according to the Institute for Economics and Peace. The non-profit group, which released its latest Global Peace Index for 2015 earlier in the week, ranked 162 countries around the world based on factors such as conflict, violence and militarisation. YWAM is very active in Iceland with a vision to be a community of missional disciples growing in intimacy with God and who are surrendered to his Son. Their goal is to partner with other believers whenever they can, connecting across church boundaries to transform every area of Icelandic society to make all things new. They believe that everything is spiritual. How we treat others, stand up for the oppressed and care for the environment go hand in hand with prayer, worship and reading scripture.
