Day 3- Our Savior Reigns

Today was such an impactful day, in the children's lives' our lives' and I'm sure even the workers here at the camp!


To start off the day, we began with a devotion about complaining. We have been diligently working on cleaning the pond out, painting the basketball court, and more! With these tasks at hand and it being so incredibly hot, it caused me to complain. The devotion was roughly giving us reasons why Jesus didn't complain therefore why we shouldn't complain. After that we got back to work!


As the day continued we heard some great testimonies from numerous people, that have planted seeds in the people's heart's. That could lead to a life changing decision, of accepting Christ as there Savior and Lord. We've been praying for all the workers and children here, and I invite you to do so also, because prayer works!


We saw just a glimpse of how incredible our Savior is, after Pastor Tibor shared the Gospel with the children this evening, Laci did a salvation invitation for all the children, and seeing so many kids stand up from there seats and gather on stage to represent that they have just put their trust in God. It brought tears to many of us while the band sang a beautiful song with such inspiring words that represent the journey of giving up your life for a never ending Love to take over!


Seeing all of this at the end of the day is breath taking and purely shows how our Savior reigns! We could feel the glory of the Lord shining and working in that room!

We have a few prayer requests, that we invite you to pray for!
-Many of the workers here are getting sick, from a cold virus going around. so just lift them up in prayer.
-All the children that gathered on that stage and gave their life to Jesus! That they will stand strong and continue to grow in their faith.
-Also the people that weren't quite ready to accept Christ, and that God will continue to work in their lives'. And they will realize they cant go on with life by themselves, it just wont work.
-for safety and a great time!1

Day 2 (Monday)

Today was a very fun day for our group! We got to help clean out the dirty lake, which was actually a little fun once you got used to the smell and the feel of the algae and the vines. But for me personally, I got to meet an amazing little boy. His name is Matthew, he is 7 years old, and he was in the class I was teaching for English. He has four brothers and sisters, and he's the smallest one. While I was helping teach, I noticed his mom was with him in the group. The more I watched him, I realized he was a little bit mentally disabled. His thoughts didn't come out as quickly as others. I started talking to his mom, and he soon came up and started slowly talking. Matthew is honestly the sweetest boy, even if his mental ability is slower than others. His mom had me take him to the cafeteria, and he talked and talked. One thing that God had taught me through that experience is that anyone can influence you at anyone, and in my case, it was through an awesome 7-year-old boy.

Day 1 (Sunday)

We are in Hungary! We've been preparing for this day for months, but not any amount of preparation could make us ready for these 10 days. Here's what the Lord has done so far:

We have had some bumps along the road so far, but our God is amazing and works crazy awesome things in our lives in crazy awesome ways. We missed our flight from Paris to Budapest, but God provided seats on different planes for everyone. 7 people had to stay the night in Paris, but God gave us enough money to pay for a hotel room.  We thought that the last 3 people wouldn't make it Budapest until Sunday evening, but God provided seats on a plane for everyone and we all got here before the kids did!

We have been getting to know the campers today and even through the language barrier, God's been working and I am so excited to see what He does the rest of the week in our lives and the campers'.
