Over the past several weeks, we have discovered an exciting movement among a few people who believe their village outside of Szeged can really make an impact. At the center of the story is Róbert (Robi) Molnár, mayor of the village, and more importantly, at the center of Robi's story is God. Although he grew up "religious," Robi came to a much deeper faith and commitment to follow our Lord 5 years ago at a retreat with Reformed Church leaders. And some exciting, providential things have been happening since then....including the construction of a new Health and Social Welfare Center for the development of community. Donna and I went out to visit, and in November Donna will be able to use the facility for a women's conference, inviting 25+ women out for fellowship and prayer and solace in this beautiful little village.
I have also had the opportunity to sample some fellowship events they have hosted, including a students' weekend with Christian Motorcyclists Association, and I went out with friend Ede from Szeged Cornerstone Church to participate in a Christian film and fellowship evening with them. It is a blessing to see that both Reformed and Baptist fellowships in the village are working together in the Lord......hoping for greater transformation to come to Kübekháza and this region! We hope too that we can be an encouragement to them and find ways to partner with these new friends in their ministry and outreach.
