Hello!
There is so much to update on! Spring has definitely moved in. The sun is shining, the weather is beautiful and march is already almost over. Its hard to believe.

Ministries are actually changing a lot at the moment. We have just launched an english group in a village about an hour away. We don't have many members at this time. There are about 4 faithful comers, but we are just about to have our third meeting so there is still time for it to grow. I get to work with the beginners, and i have discovered that i really enjoy teaching english (at least the basics). Most of the time i think i have no business teaching anyone english, but beginners i can do. As of a few days ago the 4 Senses Theater will no longer be meeting. There have been many conflicts this year, and the scheduling has just become too difficult to proceed. We really don't have the man power to do the english or hungarian theaters, so for now the club is on hold. I do ask for prayer for the direction of the group though. It's an excellent way to reach students, so we don't think this is the end of the theater all together. As for our team, we are trying to brainstorm ways to be on the campus, because as of right now we have nothing official going on there. So again, prayer for wisdom and for us to be attentive to God's will.

The church plant in Tiszafured is going really really well. We moved locations about 2 or 3 weeks ago, so we are no longer at the culture house. We are currently renting a space that sits on top of a pub, and it literally called 'the beer house'. Irony. It is so amazing though, because not once did we have random walk ins at the culture house, but now that we are in the beer house we have had maybe 5 or 6 people join us for music or the Bible study. The lady we rent the space from is very enthusiastic about the church. She has taken it upon herself to advertise the church in the local paper and begin plans for a more permanent sign on the building. She is not a believer, so her excitement about the church is so encouraging! So please keep Jude and her potential growth in your prayers!

Tomorrow Seth and I will go to Budapest to meet his mom. She is flying in to take us on our "S.alt architectural/educational" exploration around Europe. We will get to see Spain and a few cities in Italy. I am so so excited! I have been so blessed to get the chance to experience all the culture and history around me.

The Lord is teaching me so much. Through personal quiet times and bible studies i have begun to realize again just how much freedom and excitement there is in following the Lord. His vast love for me and his people is astounding, and it is so evident how undeserving i am. It's a long journey of learning how to love God and his people with the love he has for us.

I'd like to say thank you again to everyone that made this trip a possibility for me. I thank the Lord for your willingness to give, and for presenting me with the opportunity to be here.
God Bless!

"But since we belong to the day, let us be self-controlled, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in face you are doing." 1 Thessalonians 5:8-11


All my wonderful friends and i on my birthday.
