Above: Éva helped the kids to see the origin of sin in the book of Genesis and the effects that it has had on us ever since. She then presented the gospel of Jesus Christ and encouraged them to put their faith in Him.



Above: We asked for God’s Spirit to bring conviction to the hearts of the kids this morning in prayer, recognizing the need of His work in their hearts to bring conviction and reveal truth. This was the first scene of many that verified HIs work. Robin and Brigi came to Miki after this morning’s teaching and asked more about making a decision to put their faith in Jesus. This happened at a time of day when the kids are free to roam outside and have a morning snack until they are called back to go to their small group teaching time. Robin and Brigi decided to seek God in this time of their own initiative. Miki explained the Gospel again and made sure they understood what they were deciding to do. Afterwards they prayed for salvation in Christ.



Above: Later in the day, Kriszian sought out Val and shared his desire to make a decision. He said he loves everything that is being taught in camp and wants to be able to share it with others also. He purposefully separated himself from some friends who were trying to keep everything at a surface level so that he could talk more seriously with Val.



Above: Soon after Krisztian made a decision, I saw Éva talking with Bogi (above). Bogi shared with me that she made a decision to believe in Jesus and looks forward to coming to church with her sister Zsófi who just rededicated her life to Jesus at our English Camp.



Above: Zsófi shared with me her desire to see her brother Józsi (above) saved as well. Zsófi’s mother has come to church over the past two weeks and we are hopeful that her entire family will come to personally know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.



In addition to Robin, Brigi, Bogi and Krisztian, there were other kids like Anna, Jenifer, Mira, Kinga and Adrien (above far right) who also sought out leaders to make decisions to believe in Jesus Christ. After serving in Petőfbánya for over 6 years in our VBS camps, this is the first time I’ve seen a response like this.



In afternoon free time, Brigi, Bogi and Krisztian were roaming around finding people to tell that they had put their faith in Jesus. We praise God the Father for drawing them to Himself and giving them understanding.









Above: The above bookmark done by one of the kids who was saved says “Jesus loves you. Jesus is love”

PRAISE AND PRAYER REQUESTS

This was an amazing day of watching the Spirit move from one child to the next and a day that lives have been changed for eternity. Praise God for His mercy and grace and His love for these kids tucked away in obscurity in northeastern Hungary. Praise God that these kids have an opportunity to go to our church plant after camp and we already have a healthy youth ministry that seeks to mentor and build into their lives. We appreciate your prayers for the steady work of follow up for Robin, Brigi, Bogi, Krisitian, Anna, Jenifer, Mira, Kinga and Adrien.

We have been experiencing spiritual warfare leading up to this day and in response to this day. The enemy does not recline after God’s children share the gospel and bear fruit. Please pray for protection from the enemy, for our core team, for the kids who made decisions and for the remaining days of camp to continue to bring glory to Jesus Christ. May He continue to lead us in victory.
