P1230019

Above: Making the motions to the song, “The greatest gift”. We are always encouraged when we hear the answer to the question, “Do you remember us?” The kids all shout, “IGEN!” (YES!). As we visit multiple schools every Easter and Christmas, we pray that the explanation of the Gospel will have an impact on their lives, hoping that they personally put their faith in Jesus.

PRAISES:

• Unity on team, each person serving one another, encouraging one another and helping one another.

• No car trouble, and God gave us safety while traveling.

• Great first day! Kind receptions at both schools and children payed close attention throughout the show, participating in singing and giving answers to questions.

• Successful last minute transfer of a puppet part that Sharon was going to play to Erika.

• All technical equipment worked without a problem and there were no distractions throughout the show.

• MIki was able to pick up a bulk of the evangelistic packets last Friday (sometimes there is an issue getting them in time for the start of the show)

• God provided the full amount of money needed for the evangelistic packets.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

• Benjamin became sick on Saturday night, having a 103 temperature. The girls followed on Sunday with low grade fevers and coughing. With all three kids sick, Sharon is caring for them and has given her part to Erika. Please pray for the healing of our children and also for Miki who is not feeling well.

• Miki will be picking up the rest of the evangelistic packets tomorrow and has a lot of traveling to do. Please pray for safety and an opportunity to encourage and bless Norbi and Peti who will be joining him in the car ride.

• Tomorrow we head to the town of ErdÅ‘tarcsa, please pray for the team and for the children of that town.
