Student Survival Kits Distribution (SSK)

Yesterday we went to Zánka to a freshmen camp for legal students. We could ditribute approximatelly 300 SSK. We are very thanksful for God because we got back about 200 questionaries. So we can call them back, arrange a meeting and share the Gospel. They need God!!! We just listened them and they talked about drinking. They were proud for how much they could drink. So it is awful! THEY NEED GOD! We know it and we have to tell them!

Annual Staff Conference August 14-19,2007


view some pictures>>

Each year all the staff who serves together with us in Hungary gathers for a time of prayer, encouragement, vision and planning for the coming ministry year before we all split in teams to focus on a specific campus or high school. I am thankful for your prayers for this conference. We have worked very hard to prepare for it. We had a very intense schedule (from 7:30am to 10:00pm), but the time was very fruitful.

We serve together with 24 Hungarian staff, 6 Americans and 1 Hungarian from Romania.

We have started each day with an intense time of prayer led by different staffs each day. I led this time last day about God’s provision and we prayed about physical needs of staff members and ministries. After prayer we have listened to devotions from our Regional Director (Marek), his wife (Ala) and our National Director (Gabor)

The theme of the conference was: The Life of an Evangelist.

Our main speaker was Rod Powell and Margi, his wife. They serve in muslin republics of Russia. They live in Kabardino-Balkaria. When they have arrived there were only 6 Christian in the whole republic. It was very encouraging to hear how God is working among all nations and bringing to His kingdom muslins, too. The hard and dangerous work of evangelists, like Rod and Margi will bring fruit. Maybe it is not always visible at first.

Gabor, our National Director gave a message on Jeremiah’s calling, specially focusing on what it means if God calls someone into the ministry. We were discussing about the job of an evangelist. That is to sow the seeds. There are plenty seeds. Our job is not to be concerned about where the seed lands, just to sow it.

Outside of the spiritual messages, we have spent lot of time talking about the practical application of our calling and what are expectations from a staff member in our ministry. We gave a clear job description to everybody with a specific schedule. Our staffs are very much committed to work very hard for the sake of the Gospel. It was a great time of refocusing our vision, re-commit ourselves and prepare for the very intense time ahead of us in the ministry. Everybody is committed to make faith steps in the ministry and not just do what we can, but do what we believe in, what we have faith for. We always have to set faith-goals: things we can’t see how we will accomplish, because those are the things we will really start trusting in God.

I gave thanks specifically for our ministry partners, who are participating with us in this ministry through prayer, support and encouragement. I also prayed that God would bless your and encourage you through our ministry. Thanks you for participating with me!!!!!!!
