Above: Today we performed in the town of Hatvan in a care center for mentally disabled. In the first few years attending this care center it was clear that the bright lights, the surprises in the puppet show and our very presence in the small room in which they gathered caused a bit of stress and even fear. Having come here year after year, most of those being cared for now know us by name and are excited as we set up our puppet stage. The girl pictured above center often struggles with crying throughout our entire presentation. We prayed for her before we arrived and saw God help her, especially when the Gospel was being presented. She answered questions, participated in singing and was even upset when we had to leave.

Thanks for your prayers for us today! God was gracious to give us beautiful weather for travel and unpacking/packing for the show. Here are some new requests:

PRAYER REQUESTS:

• Many of us are still struggling with sickness. Please pray for healing of team members and their children.
• Tomorrow we visit two schools which involves more travel and time coordination. Please pray for safety and success.
• Pray that the message of Christmas and the Gospel that Miki will present will be clearly communicated and understood by the children and teachers.
