Update From Budapest

Hello to all of you that let us know that you would be praying for us on our trip back to Budapest. I (Shay) am up in the middle of the night here fighting good ol jet lag! I slept so well last night which was our first night here. But tonight is a different story. That's usually how it goes. The first night is pretty good and the second night not as easy to go to sleep and stay asleep. Of course, I can hear Curt snoring in the other room so at least one of us is getting some sleep! But he deserves the shut-eye. He has worked hard today for things we needed to do in Budapest plus he drove everywhere. Driving is a really tiring responsibility on these roads, with these laws, AND someone's borrowed car that has a stick shift. Makes my head hurt thinking about doing all of that!

Tomorrow we go to church at Danube International. We will go to Sunday School and then we get to hear Pastor Ronnie teach on Hannah from the Bible. He said he chose her to preach on since tomorrow is Mother's Day. What a great text! I'm not sure what the lunch plans are after church but it will be fun I feel sure. Then tomorrow night, our good friends, the Stirlings, are hosting a dinner for us and inviting special friends to that.

We appreciate your concern about the ministry that is going on in this part of the world. Your prayer and financial support does not go unnoticed by God or by us. How humbled we are to be in partnership with you.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there. A special greeting to my mom, Carolyn, who is a terrific mom and has supported us in many ways as we try to serve God here in Europe.
