Hungary-Day 4 of Camp



Hello again from Hungary! Things have been going well this week! By Wednesday or Thursday everyone finds their niche for what works best for their class and this really helps with students feeling more comfortable and being courageous to speak English.

So what have we been up to? Tuesday evening some of the team went to the Hungarian Bath House. This is a place where natural warm water springs up from the ground and it has been harnessed into a pool. Wednesday evening we went out for pizza and celebrated Lin’s Birthday! Today after school we stayed late to have a cultural exchange celebration with our students. We ate coke floats and Reese’s cups and the Hungarians sang a folk song for us and taught us some great games!                 





                                                                                                                    

We have discovered that Will really likes kicking the soccer ball!!
                                                                                                                           
We have had a lot of positive feedback from the team about their students, classes and experience. Many of the students are really excited to be in the class and have been having a great time.






Bill, Sally, John, Nichole and Scott (EEMN Missionary) had a meeting with the school headmistress, head English teachers and school staff to discuss the possibility of doing another camp next year. The school staff are very pleased and excited about us being here this year and are interested in the possibility of having another camp!






Today is our last day of camp which can be bittersweet. It is sad to leave out students, we have had such a great time! Yet, we look forward to returning to those at home who we love and look forward to God using us in our own church and community!
Thank you for your prayers and support through our week!

Team Member Testimony:

Question: “What is something new that God has shown you?”

“God has given me a deeper clearer appreciation of the importance of the cultural and language exchange. Through the powerful witness of the younger missionaries in our group and the level of Biblical understanding of the students, I am greatly encouraged.” –Lin

“ I have learned that the Red Sea doesn’t have to part for me to know and understand what God wants me to do. If I seek Him in His Word and in prayer, especially in times of worry and stress, then He will lead me-or at least point me in the right direction.” –Diana
