We don't often put up pictures of our church - mainly because we don't take many pictures during church, because we are too busy worshiping and being in fellowship!
But this past weekend we took some pictures, so in case you haven't seen it before, you can get a better "picture" of what our church is like.
Prayer Request
Please pray for our English Camp, which is coming up this summer. We do this camp as an outreach to local youth. We already have 22 kids officially signed up, and are counting on quite a few more.
Please pray that many kids would come to our camp, and that we would be able to powerfully and effectively share the Gospel message with them.

May Update
Greetings from Eger!
We are back in Eger now, after having been away in America for 5 weeks. Like any trip it felt long in some ways and too short in other ways, but we are glad to be back, and glad to be doing what the Lord has called us to do here in Eger.
Personal News
In America we went to two weddings, one for Nick's former roommate, Pisti, and the other for our good friend Naveen. Nick had the privilege of being the best man in both weddings! We also celebrated the wedding anniversary of Nick's parents, and visited friends and supporters in Southern California and Syracuse, NY.
The baby is growing well, and is totally healthy - Praise the Lord! The doctors tell us that Junior (as we call him for now, until we pick out a real name) is a boy! We are looking forward to meeting our son and raising him up in the Lord's ways.
Rosemary is also doing well carrying Junior - although she does have difficulty getting used to not sleeping on her back. But other than minor discomfort, everything is going great, and we are so thankful.
The baby is due on August 22, and will be born here in Eger. We have our big English Camp outreach on the first week of August, so we are praying that the baby won't come by then, but we're making plans in case that happens.
Nick has been swimming and mountain biking a lot in his free time, and Rosemary has been reading a lot about babies and trying to get some exercise herself. We are glad to both have more and more guys in the church for Nick to hang out with, as well as women and moms for Rosemary to hang out with.
All around we are very excited about what God is doing in our lives and we feel very blessed.
Prayer Requests:
- Praise God for the healthy pregnancy
- Pray for the health of Rosemary and the baby, and for a quick and easy delivery

Our church had its 2 year anniversary on Easter this year! Two years ago we started having Sunday services with a small group of people, and God has caused that group to grow and expand, and for people to get saved through it. When we look back over the last 2 years since we've started, we're just amazed at how God has worked among us and established us as Christians and as a Church.
Unfortunately, we couldn't be here for this anniversary, but we wrote a letter to the church, which they read aloud during the service.
While we were in America, Shane taught through the book of Jonah on Sundays, and on Wednesdays Attila and Shane shared the teaching schedule. If anything, it seems that the church is even stronger than when we left! Some of the fruit that shows us the church is doing well, is that while we were gone they organized on their own an outreach in a park, with the worship team playing music and sharing the Gospel, as others went and talked to people and invited them to church and talked with them about Jesus. They also organized a worship night on Good Friday which was well attended. We are so blessed to see these things!
Since April our church now rents an office in the building where we have our Sunday services. This is a great blessing, as we now have a place to do church business, like counseling, accounting, worship practice, etc... (I am actually writing you from the office right now!)
One thing which we are very glad to see is the expansion of our worship ministry. Shane has been doing a very good job of training people both musically and spiritually in what it means to lead worship. On Sundays there are usually 4 people in the band, but there are at least 7 people right now who are involved in the worship ministry in some way. Our worship team here has even begun to translating new songs into Hungarian - which is a blessing as it is always good to sing a new song unto the Lord.
This summer will be full of conferences and camps. At the family camp this summer quite a few of the new Christians from our fellowship will be baptized!
The highlight of our summer will be the English Camp (July 30 - Aug 4), which is an outreach we do to local high school and college age kids. We have helpers coming from Syracuse, Vista, Denver, and San Jose, to spend a week with Hungarian youth, teaching them English and sharing the Lord with them through Friendship Evangelism. The picture here is of the poster we use to advertise the camp in local schools.
Prayer Requests:
- Praise God for the work He is doing here in Eger - for the church and for those in it who have committed their lives to following Jesus
- Pray that many people in Eger would turn to God and be saved
- Pray for an outpouring of God's Spirit on our church
- Pray for our English Camp - that God would bless it and that many young people would come and get to hear about the Lord
Thank you for your prayers and support! Please feel free to contact us; we would love to hear from you.
