JOBBÁGYI



Above: Victor greeting us as we set up for our first show today. Victor and his family have been attending our church for the past year after Victor’s mother heard about us at work through Dezso.























Above: Unfortunately, things started breaking today in our first show. First a knob from our large speaker broke off, then one of the kids holding the red eggs dropped it on the floor cracking the plastic casing and finally part of our stage frame cracked while packing. While Eszti was carrying some heavy gear out to the car, she didn’t see one of the steps and slipped off almost turning her ankle (like her husband just did a few days ago). Thankfully, she wasn’t hurt. Erika and Eniko made some quick repairs after the show to our equipment and thankfully everything was ready to go for our next show.

SZURDOKPUSPOKI





Above: Miki had to call this teen up front after he was continuing to distract others in the back row. In most of the schools the older teens don’t attend because the show isn’t geared toward them. This was a tough show for us because of the teens, many of whom heckled and distracted others throughout the show. Thankfully, the smaller kids were so far up front that most of them were able to pay attention despite the interruptions.









PÁSZTÓ



Above: Pásztó is the special needs school where our teammate Erika used to work. Erika was greeted by teachers she had developed relationships with and of course many kids who remembered her as one of their favorite teachers.













Above: The young boy sitting on the teachers lap ran up and began hitting some of the puppets at the beginning of our show (he did the same thing last year). Thankfully, this teacher grabbed him and he quickly calmed down. Other than that incident, the kids payed close attention and enjoyed the show.





It was a tough day with more distractions than past days, which makes the teaching time more difficult for Eniko. However, even with the distractions and the equipment that broke, God was gracious in equipping us to continue using this show to proclaim His good news.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

• Our youngest, Ziva, is sick and sounding congested. She slept well last night and we ask for prayer for her healing and that she may be protected from croup.

• Allen has a head cold, please pray for healing.

• The team is feeling a bit worn down as we pass the halfway mark. Please pray that we would be refreshed in our spirit and that God would bless us with physical strength.

• Please continue to pray that God would protect the time from distractions when the Gospel is proclaimed in the puppet show itself and when Eniko teaches after the show.

Thank you for continuing to support us through prayer!
