Looking Back

On a beautiful Fall morning with a chorus of birds singing outside our windows, I am looking back over all that has happened this summer.

Eventful would not begin to describe how wonderfully the Lord has been working in the lives of the young people in our small Debrecen church. God has blessed our church with a Youth Pastor who truly cares about his flock. Pastor Dani has inspired our young people to truly live out the message of Matthew which encourages all of us to "go and share the good news of Jesus Christ." They have done that through their willing hearts at the summer sports and English camps, through their teaching of God's word to the littlest children at the Gypsy church in Boszormeny, and through their on-going mentoring and encouragement of the orphans in Miskolc.

We thank God for each person who has stepped up to the plate, sometimes literally, as they have participated in teaching/coaching American Baseball.

In gratitude for such willing hearts, Rob and I decided to host a bar-b-q for all the youth group members. We spent an afternoon and evening enjoying each others company eating bar-b-q, playing badmiton, volleyball, and praising God in worship.

Thank you one and all for your continued prayer for the work of God's hands here in Hungary, always remembering "the prayers of a godly man/woman availeth much!!!

Blessings in Christ,
Rob and Carol
