Blessed Easter!

Baby girl and mission opportunities

Our baby is a little girl :) Her name is Lili. Some weeks ago I visited my doctor and he said she is growing well and healthy. I feel her moving in my body. At the evenings she is so active and Norbi can feel her when he put his hand into my stomach. We are so happy!

How can you join to our mission in this year? There are two great mission projects we organize each year and in both we need English speaking believers to help reach students for Christ. Here are the two projects that we ask you to prayerfully consider joining to:

1. SPEAKOUT camp. This is a month-long mission project between June 26 and July 30th. Each year hundreds of non-Christian students arriving to this great remote location where we have this camp. It's a conversational English camp where we utilize their desire to develop their language skills to share Christ. You can learn more about that camp at this website: http://speakoutstaff.wordpress.com - please study that website and if you are interested, don't hesitate to contact us.

2. BHHP - Bringing into the Hungarian Harvest Project. This is a week-long mission project between September 27th and October 5th. During that week you'll have an opportunity to speak in classrooms, in dorms sharing Christ both in High Schools and in University campuses. This website gives all the details about this great opportunity: http://timoteus.hu/partners/Partners/Welcome.html
All we ask you is to please, PRAY about this and consider if God wants to use you impacting these student's life. We have a window of opportunity where students are very much interested to hear about Jesus! Come over and help us!

I am SO THANKFUL for your faithful partnership!!! I give thanks for our partners and are asking God to bless you with everything that you need to be able to follow Him and grow in Him!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord...”
Luke 2:10-11

YTL is 20 years old

We were celebrating the 20 years of YTL with a special educator's symposium and with series of student outreaches.

After the Iron Curtain failed God opened a remarkable opportunity for us to reach multitudes of students and educators launching a ministry we now call "Youth at the Threshold of Life". The humbling start of YTL led to an accredited educational tool and to a ministry that is widely use in and beyond Hungary. As we look back to this two decades we are humbled to see how God has used YTL to reach hundreds of  students and educators with the gospel. We not only saw God using YTL to expose multitudes to the gospel, but we saw Him raising up hundreds of Christ-like laborers as well!
We have devoted a week to remember this milestone between September 29-October 6. 24 Americans came and spent this week with us to maximize the evangelistic opportunity we have in the schools because of YTL. We went with them to more then 100 classrooms in a week and invited hundreds of kids to some of the special outreaches we had during the week in dorms or at YTL weekly meetings.

We ended this week with a special jubilee educator's symposium held between 4-6 of October. We've invited some special guests and about 120 educators to this YTL symposium. The most memorable moment of this week-end-long educator's symposium was when we had a 45 minutes interview with those who started YTL: Dave Robinson, Dr. Denes Banhegyi and Gabor. (It's a missiological mystery of multicultural effectiveness how God brought together and used an American and a Hungarian missionary, and a Hungarian non-Christian doctor to develop a ministry that serves the society and is also an effective vehicle for the gospel.) Dave and Gabor have prepared several new talks to deliver at this jubilee symposium focusing on new aspects of youth problems (i.e. internet addiction). But as always in the past 20 years, the gospel was the same as Gabor and Dave have shared the saving message through their personal stories on Saturday night extending an invitations to all the educators to make a personal step of faith by confessing their sins and inviting Jesus Christ into their life! We've asked the educators to give a written feedback about the personal stories and the gospel they've heard. The responses were overwhelmingly encouraging and 5 educators expressed that they've made a decision on that night and gave their life to Jesus! We are just always absolutely amazed how God is still using after 20 years these symposiums to touch lives. Gabor has prepared a short video that highlights some of the memories of the 20 years in 5 minutes. 

 
Your faithful prayers and financial support made it possible this 20 years of miracles! Thank you very much!
