Prayer requests

In the next two week I will go to Romania twice. Tomorrow I will go to Kolozsvar with our campus team. It is a fairly big city and lots of Hungarians live there. We go to help starting a ministry among Hungarian campus students. Please pray for appointments with students who got Survival Kits. On Tuesday evening we call them and ask appointments to next day. On Wednesday evening there will be an evangelistic event. The topic is personality types.
Second time I will fly to Bucharest, the capital of Romania for audit training. I got an invitation to study about how we can check accounting of Campus Crusade ministry in other countries. It is a good opportunity to develop my knowledge in finances. Please pray for my studies!

Prayer day

Every staff member in the Campus Crusade spend a day with prayer in every half year all over the world. We praised God with singing, studied Bible and we prayed for personal prayer requests and our ministry events in Hungary, Eastern Europe and in the world.

YTL Club

We had YTL Club in one of Economics School's dorm. This dorm is very close to my apartment, in the next corner. We were in this dorm with BHHP project. Our student leader who lives here is very enthusiastic to reach her dorm with gospel. She helps to organize the YTL Club. We would like to talk about topics that interest the students.


Last Monday we had the first Club
and about 20 students come down for about 2 hours to talk about relationships. Most students were a bit quiet, but some had something to say to every question. I had opportunity to share my testimony.


We are planning four more evening in every two weeks. We would like to talk about men and women rules in a relationship. Please continue to pray for openness in this dorm.

A HUGE ANSWER OF PRAYER

Many of you had been praying for our legal status. Finally we got an answer from the tax office and from the Department of Finance from the Government and our staff doesn't have to pay tax after donations received from individuals through Crusade. Many of you were praying for this, thank you!!! This is very crucial for our ministry due to the burden we had to carry. Now hopefully this will make it possible for our staff to receive full paychecks (or close) from January 2009.

BHHP results and story

The Bringing to the Hungarian Harvest Project (BHHP) was extremely good, effective and busy. There was over 2,000 evangelistic SSKs distributed to freshmen on universities and hundreds filled out the survey attached to it and indicated that they want to talk with someone about God. We had 2 major high school assemblies where over 350 students gathered at each school. We gave a YTL talk on sex and invited them to the high school outreach .There was about 60 campus students at the campus outreach on Monday. We shared the Good News with more than 100 students through "random" personal evangelism on campuses. There were 3 great dorm outreaches where we had deep conversations with students about the gospel . We had dozens of English classes in campuses and universities and invited students to the campus and high school outreaches.

STORY ABOUT ONE OF DORM OUTREACHES
BHHP team was an event in the Economics School's dorm. One of BHHP people gave a talk on business intuition, and than went into small group discussions. And after an hour there were intense conversations discussing the Gospel, Christ's role in our relationship with God and other important issues like that.

It was a very interesting evening because there was an other party int he dorm. It was all about going wild for a night! Everything talked about alcohol and sex. What a contrast! Things we share, and the lives we live are so far from where the world is headed.

We was so glad we were there. We do not want to be far from the world, even though We never want to be in that world. We want to be where students live and party. And we know they are far away from God in their lifestyles. But God came very close to their lives in Christ. Christ went where the sinners lived. To bring change.
