Ringkasan doa bagi Islandia
Terakhir diperbarui Oktober 2026. Fakta diambil dari sumber-sumber yang tercantum di bawah.
Peristiwa terkini
On 29 August 2026 Icelanders voted in a referendum on resuming talks to join the European Union, and the "no" side won by 52.8% to 47.2%. The Prime Minister said EU membership will not return to the political agenda during her term, and ties through the European Economic Area will remain unchanged. On the Reykjanes peninsula, repeated eruptions since late 2023 have forced the people of Grindavík from their homes, and most have now moved away.
Kami berdoa bagi: Pertolongan segera, keselamatan, dan bantuan mendesak.
Kepemimpinan dan politik
Iceland is a parliamentary republic. The President is Halla Tómasdóttir, in office since August 2024, and the Prime Minister is Kristrún Frostadóttir. Her government says the question of EU membership will not return during its term, which ends in 2028, and has left it to Parliament to decide whether to withdraw the old application.
Kami berdoa bagi: Hikmat, integritas, dan keadilan bagi para pemegang kekuasaan.
Kesehatan ekonomi
The government presented its first balanced budget in nearly a decade, and it says real wages have risen since 2024. Yet inflation was about 5.6% in September 2026 and interest rates are high, and the Prime Minister has said the housing market is "still broken". Fishing remains central to the economy, and about 90% of fishing companies opposed joining the EU.
Kami berdoa bagi: Pemeliharaan bagi keluarga-keluarga dan pengelolaan yang jujur.
Masalah sosial dan budaya
Iceland is a small nation of close communities. Families from Grindavík, a town of about 4,000 people before the eruptions, have had to rebuild their lives elsewhere. The government plans to review residence permits and deportation rules, to overhaul child protection, and to pass a bill to compensate people who were harmed in state care as children.
Kami berdoa bagi: Rekonsiliasi, damai, dan perlindungan bagi mereka yang rentan.
Keadaan rohani
About 59% of Icelanders belong to the Evangelical Lutheran national church, according to Statistics Iceland in the US State Department 2023 report. The Catholic Church has about 4%, the Free Lutheran churches about 4.5%, and about 8% belong to no religious group. Trust in the national church has fallen to about 27%. There are about 3,000 Muslims and a small Jewish community.
Kami berdoa bagi: Kebangunan rohani, pengharapan, dan tersebarnya kebenaran.
Kebebasan beragama
The constitution guarantees freedom of belief and worship and makes the Evangelical Lutheran Church the national church, supported by the state. Other registered groups receive church tax from their members and can hold legally recognised marriages. Jewish leaders report occasional antisemitic incidents, and some Muslims say doctors refuse circumcision for religious reasons. On the whole, people of all faiths worship freely.
Kami berdoa bagi: Perlindungan bagi orang percaya dan kebebasan untuk beribadah dengan aman.
Luka sejarah
Iceland became a republic in 1944, when a president took the place of the king. The financial crisis around 2008 and 2009 caused deep hardship and led Iceland to apply to join the EU, an application that has divided the nation since. Many also carry the pain of children harmed in state care in years past.
Kami berdoa bagi: Kesembuhan bangsa, terputusnya lingkaran lama, dan pengampunan yang mendalam.
Mari kita berdoa bersama
Our Father, we come to You together for Iceland. Comfort the families of Grindavík and keep every home safe from fire and earthquake. Give wisdom, integrity and justice to President Halla Tómasdóttir, Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir and all who lead. Bring down the cost of living and provide homes for young families. Protect children and the vulnerable, and make the nation one after a divided vote. Awaken hearts across Iceland to the hope of Jesus. Keep all believers free to worship safely. Heal those harmed in the past and lead the nation in forgiveness and peace. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
