Above: Excitement in the air before our Puppet Show begins in Heréd. This is one of the larger schools we visit, and the headmaster of the school is very gracious toward us every year. As she introduced us, she told the newer kids who were seeing the show for the first time, “Once you see the show, you won’t be able to wait for them to come back at Easter... you’ll love it!”

Above: Erika sharing the Gospel after the show. Sometimes it is harder to keep the kids attention when there is a larger audience, but we praise God that they payed attention and afterwards were able to answer Miki’s questions about what we can remember about the true meaning of Christmas. Allen accompanies this time by illustrating different parts of her message which helps keep the kids engaged.

P1230575

Above: From one of the larger schools, to one of the smallest, our next stop was the village of Nagykökényes. When we arrived, it turned out that they had planned for our show tomorrow and not today (either we or they mixed up the date.) Because of our tight schedule, today was the only day we could do the show and we asked if they could still work it out. They were gracious to be flexible and cleared out their planned cookie making activity for us to do the show.

PRAISES:

• Kids are getting the point of puppet show and Erika’s teaching at the end of the show. Praise God for them being able to pay attention and understand the message.

• I’ll say it again, this team is great serving together. Praise God for unity in Christ.

• As our custom, we forgot something important (Miki’s guitar) upon our arrival in Heréd (we do it every year at this school for some reason.) Because we were so early getting there, Miki was able to travel home and back in time for the beginning of the show.

• After the show in Heréd, the headmaster being aware that some from her school attended our VBS in the summertime encouraged us to get the word out to her students for next year’s VBS. Praise God for this open door.

• Safety in traveling, technical equipment working well, evangelistic packets being distributed.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

• Kira’s cough turned to croup cough last night and she awoke having trouble breathing with a 103 high fever. Praise God that a steam treatment/cold air treatment helped calm her and help her to breath to go back to sleep. She has had a low grade fever throughout the day today and in good spirits. Night time is usually the worst for this type of sickness. Please pray that she would be able to get the rest her little body needs and for healing from this terrible cough. Ben and Elianna continue to have low grade fevers.

• Miki and Norbi continue to deal with flu like symptoms. Please pray for them.

• Tomorrow we travel to two schools in the town of Hatvan.

Thank you all for praying!
