Today was yet another great day in the city of Budapest, Hungary. It was in the 90’s, which for most would be a bad thing, but for our team was great because we spent the afternoon at the pool. It was so refreshing to be in a cold pool on a warm day and to be able to get more connected with the kids. We raced downs slides, splashed, and dunked each other all afternoon. We also had an epic pick-up game of soccer, and the US (led by yours truly) won 2-1 against the Hungarian National Team.
I know it sounds like we are just having a lot of fun, but we are doing lots of work. Things have been going better and better in our English classes and the students have begun to become more active in our classrooms.
One of the coolest things for me to see today was at the end of the day. Camp went 3 hours longer than it normally does, so we came back from the pool and ate dinner with the kids and then had a little time to play a game. We played until 7 o’clock, but when we announced that kids could leave if they want, no one moved. It was so cool to see that the kids wanted to stay around and hang out with us. It shows that God is truly using us as examples to them.
I would ask that all of you to continue to pray that God would be using each of us to minister to these kids, whether we can actually talk to them, or just show them through our actions. I would also ask that you pray for our chapel time, where the kids are presented with Christ, in most cases for the first time. They each are have a small group so please pray that they continue to learn more about God and continue to ask questions.
