Monday ESL

Tonight we started a new semester of our community english classes. It turns out that we had to switch our classrooms around a bit, as the Retired Club is now meeting in one of the larger rooms we use. I had some time to talk to one of the club attendees and I hope that in some way we will be able as a church to reach out to this generation.
We thank God that there were other rooms that we could use in the community center, and for the kindness and flexibility of Jutka who is in charge of giving out rooms to use.

Above: Miki and Feri. Feri was a faithful attender to our English Bible study last semester and we were glad to see him here tonight. Feri is a Christian, but is not involved in any local fellowship. Please pray for him and his family that they would be drawn closer to God through fellowship. I found out last year that Feri plays on Petofibanya's adult soccer league. He also visited our Friday sports outreach, and we hope to see him visit again this Friday for soccer. Please pray for him.

Above: Brenda's class won the prize for being the largest. We were thankful to see Eszter and Monika (first two students seated top left) return as students. Brenda has developed a relationship with them and visits them in their village of Jóbágyi. Eszter has also previously visited our worship group practice to learn more about playing guitar.

Above: Heidi's class included a news student by the name of Laszlo (above center). Miki met Laszló in the neighboring village of Selyp and invited him to class. Laszlo is the husband of Gyöngyi who helped us in last year's VBS. Both Gyöngyi and Laszlo attend Miki's evangelistic Bible study in Selyp.
Toward the end of the second hour, Laszlo began participating more, and asking pointed questions. He was honest in saying that he is not a believer, but he is open to find out more about what the Bible teaches. Dezső gave him a copy of the "Is Jesus God" book, which is effective in dealing with common skeptical questions about Jesus Christ. The end of the book includes an explanation of the gospel and an invitation to believe. Please pray that Laszló would come to know God's truth, and that he and his family would be saved by God's grace. Thank you for your prayers!
