Gunnar Gunnarson and Svava Omardottir
Iceland
Pastors of Loftstofan Baptistakirkja, Reykjavík, Iceland
CHILDREN- Mikael, Sigurrós, Salómon, Viktoría
Gunnar Ingi Gunnarsson, along with his wife Svava María, and his kids Mikael, Sigurrós, Salómon and Viktoría are on mission in Iceland, specifically in Loftstofan Baptistakirkja, which Gunnar started in August of 2013 with hopes of planting a biblically-faithful, gospel-preaching, disciple-making, Christ-glorifying and multiplying church. What started as a 4-person bible study in 2013 has grown into a gathering of around 120 people from around 20 different nations. We're now getting ready to start a church up in Akureyri in 2026, still supporting church planting work in Europe such as Warsaw, Poland, raising up leaders for Loftstofan and building spiritual infrastructure in the country that can hopefully be a blessing to the church for generations to come.
PRAYER REQUEST
Sustaining grace while wanting to build something with an enemy giving himself to tear down.
Workers in the harvest.
Healing for Svava and Salómon.
Wisdom and grace to shepherd people well, raise up leaders, see the church grow and the people there grow in faith, understanding and devotion and love for Jesus as His followers.
