Puppets Day 10

SZARVASGEDE

Above: The weather continues to be blistery cold with mild accumulation each day. Thankfully, the majority of the main roads and back roads have been plowed or sanded which was very helpful.

Above: I actually enjoy visiting these smaller preschools in villages like Szarvasgede. I have a bit more one on one interaction with the kids as we set up the stage. These kids were telling me all about their week and how they built snow men and went sledding.

P1260926

Above: One of our ice-breakers with the kids is getting them to build an imaginary snow man with us (and having an imaginary snow ball fight as well).

P1270355

Above: As you can see, kids all the way into middle school showed up for the show in Erdőkürt. We thank God for allowing us to use this show to tell them about the birth of His Son Jesus as Savior.

P1270431

Above: Norbi and Petőfibánya’s mail lady. Before going to our third show, we needed to pick up our kids at preschool. You know you live in a village when the mail is delivered to your car while you pick up your kids.

KISBÁGYON

P1270628

Above: Our third and final show for the day was in the village of kisbágyon. After the show we traveled to Hatvan to pick up Norbi’s mother from the hospital. She was very thankful and told me how surprised she was that no one else in her family was available to pick her up. This just gave the church another opportunity to show Christ’s love for her. Since we have only two shows (Monday and Tuesday) scheduled for next week, we decided to have our team debrief meeting after our last show today. The meeting was very encouraging as we recalled how we saw God at work. We were once again amazed at how smoothly this group of seven people worked together in unity and love through the entire two weeks. I have not seen one angry outburst, frustration or careless word spoken through this stressful time. We praise God for the unity we have in His Spirit and how God led us through these two weeks by His grace.

Please continue to pray for us as we have a show on Monday in a neighboring town that has not allowed us to perform in their school. Instead, we will be performing in their retirement home and we hope to bless the elderly in this home and also hope to build relationships allowing us to be invited into the town’s school.
