Nick Vujicic in Hungary



Between April 18-20 Nick Vujicic, the man without limbs visited Hungary and spoke at 3 different venues 5 different times. It was breathtaking to see the impact as he boldly and clearly shared the gospel in front of thousands of people. He deeply impacted the audience as they saw him being happy, living with hope and sharing them how he has found eternal hope in Jesus Christ after he wanted to commit suicide not seeing any hope and meaning in life without limbs. He shared a very provoking challenge to the 20,000 people in the stadiums: "I thought if I would just have arms and legs than I would be happy. Than I look at you all. You have arms and legs and you are not happy. Arms and legs are not the key to happiness and hope. Jesus is the key to happiness and hope." WOW! Very profound statement from someone without limbs. After his presentations hundreds and hundreds were coming in lines to give him a hug and talk to him. Many were crying as they hugged him. One student shared that he wanted to commit suicide, but now, after hearing Nick, he has new hope in his life. 
In between his presentations Nick and our director, Gabor (Gabor was the interpreter in his talkings)  had some good opportunities to talk and dream about how he could come back and speak to all the students in Hungary. Gabor had a chance to give him our book: The Outrageous Promise -  which gives him a greater insight of what God is doing in and through this little country! The President of our country told Nick that if he comes back to Hungary, he will help him to reach all the students!!! We pray and hope that the near future Nick would be able to come again to Hungary and we could do a major evangelistic effort to reach many more with the message of HOPE that Nick communicates so powerfully. 

This is one of his talking in Debrecen (second biggest city in Hungary).
