Context here on “saying grace”. It’s not a tradition here in Iceland to say grace before dinner, even among the religious. My late grandmother was a religious fanatic. At one point she had two of her grandchildren christened without their parent’s permission, for example. But she never asked any of us to say grace before dinner at family gatherings
So, when somebody unprompted asks for this at a dinner among relatives here, odds are they’re either born-again or in the early stages of extremism
