PUPPET MINISTRY LAST DAY
Wednesday, April 08, 2009
WEDNESDAY: Egyházasdengeleg
Above: After meeting at 7:00 am for prayer, our team ventured through the back roads of Heves County. Because of the constantly shifting temperatures this past winter, the roads are a mess, and our vehicle took a bit of a beating on the way. To take our minds off the bumpy roads, we always enjoy seeing pheasants grazing by the side of the roads and large hawks every few minutes.
Above: Because of recent changes in school structure and government funding, we had a smaller audience today in Egyházasdengeleg. Some of the teachers have had to leave this past year, and many of the older students have been scattered to other schools in the area. Even still, we saw kids that we recognized from previous years. The new children from preschool, enjoyed seeing this Easter puppet show for the first time.
Héhalom

Above: We not only do this show for the kids, but we believe the teachers hear the Gospel through this as well. After the show, we give the teachers a gift packet with evangelistic material inside.
Jobbágyi
Above: We were warmly greeted with kisses on the cheek by the teen holding the guitar in Jobbágyi. We found out last year that he is also a believer and gave a report this year that younger kids are coming to believe and follow Jesus in this town. The kids above left accompanied him and have families that have also been saved. Praise God for work he is doing in Jobbágyi!
We are very thankful for your faithful prayers and support to allow us to continue ministries like these in Hungary. As we sow seeds of God’s truth to over 1000 kids every Easter and Christmas through this ministry, a new generation will hear a clear presentation of the Gospel. Our prayer is that many of these seeds will take root in their hearts and that they would all at once come to put their faith in Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord.
