HOC Missions 2009
Tuesday in Budapest 2009

Szia!

That means hello in Hungarian. =)

Tuesday was a good day.  We taught the Czech youth the Eat, Work, Sleep skit, the Heart Skit, and the Sticky Sin skit.  They also learned Lord I Lift Your Name on High body worship.  They are so good.  They are so willing.  They already know so much but they love learning new things.  I was greatly humbled and encouraged by their attitude.

Steph, Delia, and I are in the middle of breakthrough.  We didn’t do so well leading worship.  We were not able to get the Chinese lyrics typed out in time, so we led 2 English songs.  Although the Czech youth helped us sing in Chinese, it was very difficult.  There were a lot of contributing factors, but I am so so proud of us for really trying to do what Pastor Yang wanted us to do by faith.  I think the obedience in this situation brought the breakthrough.  I know that God was really teaching us through this situation.

Pastor Joseph brought up the Czech youth after to lead worship and we were blown away by how anointed they are.  Their prayers and worship really brought the Holy Spirit into the place.  We have so much to learn from them.  I wish the whole English congregation could see their heart of worship.  It was beautiful.

Steph, Delia, and I are still adjusting to the different style of worship and messages.  It’s amazing to see how God can bring depth in our relationship with Him in so many different ways.  Pastor Yang spoke about not being self-centered, but really looking to God for everything.  It was such a blessing.

At the end, 4 PEOPLE GAVE THIER LIVES TO GOD!  PRAISE THE LORD!  God is so good and so gracious.  I don’t care if we have to be awkward and painfully frustrated by the culture difference over and over again.  If it will help save souls, we will do it.  However, I have talked to Auntie Faith and asked her to fill our Thursday worship slot with the Czech team.  After talking to them, we decided that we would introduce the youth to “America (Christian) Music” during Young People’s Day on Saturday.  =)  God has a plan and we will seek His face.

Today, we are going to a Hungarian orphanage.  We will make the gospel bead bracelet with the kids, we will play games with them, and we will do two skits and a body worship.  Please pray that God sustains us and blesses them.  We want the whole orphanage to be saved. =)

Okay.  God bless you!  Good night/morning!

by God’s grace,becca
