György Kovács

Zsuzsa and György Kovács

This past Tuesday, our dear brother Kovács György went to be with the Lord. Please pray for his wife Zsuzsa as she grieves the loss of her husband.

The family shared this verse in an email:

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, now and forevermore. (Psalms 125:2)

They said that "after a time of suffering [from cancer], he went home to the Lord in peace."

When we think of György, this scripture comes to mind:

I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith! Finally the crown of righteousness is reserved for me. The Lord, the righteous Judge, will award it to me in that day - and not to me only, but also to all who have set their affection on his appearing. (2 Tim 2:7-8)

We thank the Lord for using György in our life to direct us toward Petőfibánya. He was a key factor in our decision making process. He has been able to cast vision and stir hearts to fulfill our calling to see the gospel of Jesus spread throughout Hungary. We also thank God that after hearing he had cancer, György was able to complete a book to equip and encourage Hungarians to plant churches throughout Hungary. May we run with the same urgency and faith as he did. Until we join him in seeing our Lord at the finish line.
