Summer is full of great opportunities to sow seeds of the Gospel and to water those seeds that God is causing to grow. For those of you who followed the news from our recent English Camp, you may remember Eszti and Zsófi who rededicated their lives to Christ at English camp, trusting in Him as their personal Lord and Savior.

Both Eszti and Zsófi live in towns that border Petofibanya and have attended our VBS for years and teen outreaches. After this year’s English Camp, they have both been attending church and our teen mentoring meeting on Thursday nights.

It is through these teens that God often draws parents to know Him. Zsófi’s mother Marian visited our church last Sunday after an invite from Dezső.

It is encouraging to see how God is at work in Eszti and Zsófi’s lives, from the time when He was reaching out to them as children, to these formative teenage years.

Instead of being those who attend VBS camp this year, both Eszti and Zsófi are serving as the body of Christ.

God has been gracious to our core team this week as we continue to prepare for next week’s VBS. Our curriculum is complete, He has provided a great team to serve this year, and He has provided the money needed for supplies. We will be continuing to have drama practice, prepare the grounds, do cleaning and setup and prepare for teaching over the next few days. We appreciate your prayers for our team!

There are currently 52 kids signed up and most likely a few more will come on the day of registration. The majority of these 52 kids come from atheistic or agnostic homes. God has been gracious to spread the word about our camp and give us favor with these parents who don’t attend church. Many who don’t know us personally gladly send their kids to our VBS. Praise God for this amazing opportunity to share God’s truth and build into these kid’s lives.

Sharon’s 24 week checkup went well, however her glucose levels were a little high. She returned for a more in depth test and we should get the results in the next few days. We appreciate your prayers for our family.
