WEEKEND CAMPING OUTREACH

With heat breaking records in Hungary, our camping trip posed serious concerns. God was faithful to protect all the campers (some having to go home because of the heat). On the second night, there was a warning for severe thunderstorms and we felt an instantaneous change in temperature and powerful gusts of wind. Lighting flashed in the distance and we secured our tents and our supplies that were spread over the camp ground picnic tables. Instead of heavy rain drenching us and lighting threatening us, God was gracious to use the storm to give us relief from the heat, and we slept through the night as the storm went a different route.

We were thankful for the pre-teens/teens from our VBS that joined us and also thankful for new kids that heard about this camping trip through them.



Above: Some parents and visitors who were not able to stay overnight were able to come out to spend time with us on Saturday.

SUNDAY WORSHIP

Above: Gergely (top) and Fanni (pink) are two kids that began attending our weekly community volley ball games. We praise God that they both responded to hearing the message of the Gospel that Dezső delivered over the course of three days at camp. Both attended church after the camp outreach for the first time and both sought out others to pray and put their faith in Jesus Christ.

Above: Csilla (far left on bench) has visited our church the past two weeks. God has been using church members Ica and Erika to share the gospel with her and after Sunday’s sermon Csilla sought out Erika once again leading to Csilla putting her faith in Jesus Christ! Praise God for these three (Gergely, Fanni and Csilla) who have chosen to repent and put their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior!



Above: Sharon with Gyula. Gyula, along with Eszti and Zsófi will be getting baptized this Sunday!

Please pray:

• For new believers Fanni, Gergely and Csilla. Pray for follow up, wisdom in discipleship and mentoring.

• For Eszti, Zsófi and Gyula who will be getting baptized this Sunday. These are first generation Christians in their families not having spiritual support from their homes. Pray that their public proclamation of faith in Jesus may bring glory to God and may draw their visiting family members to Jesus.

• For Peti who will be preaching this Sunday at the baptismal service.

• Pray for our team to be refreshed with rest after a busy few months. Pray for God to lead us in rest and minister to us as we prepare for planning for a new season of ministry changes and additions.
