Above: It was refreshing to have a focused time of prayer for the various church planting works in our area, and for those on our team who are on the front lines. We were thankful for the A.R.T. team building us up and stirring us on through encouragement. It is our hope that other church planting teams from our target area will join us next month when the A.R.T. team joins us again.

Above: Front line men: Csaba, Dezső, and Miki. On Saturday, Miki (with Dezső and Csaba's help) began their first evangelistic Bible study in the neighboring town of Selyp. Miki serves as a mentor of these two men, and it is great that they experience "hands on" church planting work as they are being mentored by Miki.

Dezső also shared about what God is doing at his workplace. He said that he was confused initially after being saved as to how he would serve the Lord. He works practically all day and doesn't have much time outside of work. He now realizes that God has him exactly where he wants him–his workplace is a field ready to be harvested. Dezső has already led three people to Christ at his work place over the last three months. He says that there are nine more that are constantly asking him questions and searching. Please pray for Dezső, as he returns to work tomorrow, as an ambassador of Jesus Christ.

Above: Csaba (with Heidi translating to English for our guests). Csaba gave a report of the spiritual 'climate' of Selyp and specific barriers that we prayed about. For example, in this small town there are three palm/tarrot card readers. Some even commute from Budapest to see them. There are also some in authority over the town who declare the Baptist church a joke (sometimes even a sect). We trust that God will make a way for the Gospel of His Son to saturate Selyp. We can only hope in God's power and authority to give us this opportunity for His glory.

Above: After our time of worship and prayer, we met for our public worship service. Péter (who preaches every other week) taught on how to know God exists through experiencing Him through trust and obedience. “Whoever knows and obeys my commandments is the person who loves me. Those who love me will have my Father's love, and I, too, will love them and show myself to them.” (John 14:21)
