August update

Greetings from Eger!
This past month has been very busy for us, with outreaches and many visitors, but, Praise God, along with being eventful, it has also been fruitful!

Calvary Chapel of Eger
Usually summer is a slow time in the church, as many people travel and students are away for the break, but we have been seeing God bring new people into our fellowship this summer.
This fall, we will move to a larger room in the same building, to accomodate the growth of the church, and to give us more room for the worship team, which is pretty cramped right now!
One interesting thing is that through a brother from Budapest, we have gotten in contact with a family in a village near Eger called Szihalom, and now every week Nick is driving there and bringing people to church in Eger. The son of the family, Norbi, has since given his life to the Lord, and many others from the village are showing up and asking if they can come to church too! One of these guys in particular recently told Nick that he too would like Jesus to work in his life and change him! God is at work!
Shane Daniels is now here and settling in nicely. He is a great blessing to the church, as he leads the worship team, assists Nick, and will be discipling young men. Shane will be teaching in the church for the time that we are away in September.
The church will be going through a time of transition soon; at the end of this month Andi Gombai, who has been our translator, will be moving back to Budapest. Kati will become the main translator, and probably she will have some help with that from other girls during September while we are gone. When we return, Nick is planning to start teaching Wednesdays in Hungarian and Sundays in English, with Kati translating.

• Praise God for the work that He is doing in Eger and in the surrounding villages
• Pray that many people here would come to a saving knowledge of Jesus and be plugged into the church and discipled
• Praise God that He is answering our prayers and bringing more men and families into the church. Pray that He would continue to do that!
• Pray for spiritual awakening in Eger and in Szihalom
• Pray for Shane and the church for the time that we are in America
• Pray for the church as it goes through this time of transition
• Pray for Rosemary as she disciples the girls and leads the women's ministry, especially as the 2 others on staff will be leaving
• Pray for our Hungarian, as Nick will teach the mid-week study and Rosemary does the children's ministry speaking a foreign language

Outreaches
In the last month, we have had two bigger outreaches: a VBS kids' camp, and an English Camp for teenagers.
The VBS was not as well attended as we hoped, although there were kids who came out, and Rosemary, with help from many girls in the church as well as some friends from America, taught them about Jesus and had a great time. We realized the spiritual attack that was upon us when we got word from one of the mothers that many people in town had gotten the idea that this was a Children's Camp organized by the Hare Krishnas!

The English Camp was a BIG success! We'd been praying a lot before the camp that God would prepare the hearts of the kids who would come to receive the Gospel. During the camp, 2 girls prayed to receive Jesus as their Savior, and others recommitted their lives to the Lord. More were very interested in checking out the church, and others in coming to our English Club outreach, which meets every week, and is a tool for us to make relationships with people in town, through which we can share the Gospel.

• Pray for those who got saved and gave their lives to the Lord during the English Camp (Bianka, Nikol, Balázs, & Tamás), that they would be plugged into the church and discipled
• Pray for the kids who had seeds planted in them, that Satan would not be able to come and steal those seeds away, but that they would be watered and bear much fruit
• Pray for the English Club to be well attended and an effective tool

April
Please keep April Shondee in prayer. For the last 4 weeks she has been sick. The doctors still aren't completely sure what she has, but they are getting closer to the answer. On Monday she is scheduled to have an endoscope to see what the root of the problem is. They have narrowed it down that it is not a neurological nor a dermatological problem, but an internal medicine issue.
We have been doing everything we can to help April, and have spent many hours with her in the hospital, as they try to figure out what is wrong with her. She will be moving into our apartment this week, so that we can better take care of her. It looks like April will be going home to be with her family during this trying time; her absence will leave a gap in the church administration and the children's ministry.

• Pray for April's healing!

Personal
We are tired after this month of visitors and outreaches, and are looking forward to our time in America.
This week Nick submitted his request for an extension on his residence permit. They could say no, but we are trusting in God, that He is sovereign and that His will will be done.
We would love to see all of you while we are in America; we have a busy schedule, so if you would like to meet, please let us know ahead of time so we can make plans.

• Pray that Nick would get his residence permit extension so he can stay in Hungary
• Rosemary has not been to the refugee camp this summer, and will not be there again until the fall. Serif, who moved there to visit the camp has not been able to be in the camp because of his job. Those of you who have loved to support this ministry-please keep praying for the camp and for Serif.

Thank you for your prayers and support.
God bless,
Nick and Rosemary Cady
