We marched up and down Laugavegur (the main shopping street of Reykjavík) with signs proclaiming “Free Hugs”! I don’t even know how many people we hugged that day. I’m sure I personally hugged over 100! People’s reactions were very positive.
“This is just what I needed! You just saved my day!”
“We need more people like you guys!”
“Thank you. That’s so nice!”
Some people even stopped their cars and ran out to get a hug! Workers in a downtown bar came rushing out all at once to share the love and get a hug. To those who asked what we were advertising and how much it cost, we gladly answered, “We’re not advertising anything but love! And it’s free!” We made sure to advertise Jesus, the King of love, though, and distributed tracts to all we met. With free hugs and a loving message, we did our best to make our part of the world a better place, to brighten the day of strangers, and maybe save a life.
