Our team is based in a small town in Northeastern Hungary.
It is estimated that there are less than 2% evangelical Christians in Northeastern Hungary. These are poorer areas where many families work 50-60 hours a week and struggle to make ends meet. Dysfunctional families are prominent, with high divorce rates, live-in boyfriends as fathers, alcoholism, and a lack of loving attention and hope given to children. Many suffer from rampant depression, family feuds that last generations and utter loneliness. Heartless religious ritual, atheism, communism and the occult have firmly influenced the ideas and beliefs in this region.
In partnership with Hungarians, our team is seeking to serve in a church planting movement in the cities, small towns and villages scattered throughout Northeastern Hungary. God has been gracious through years of sowing to cause growth in the town our team resides. In addition, we are working in partnership with Hungarians in another town with a church plant in beginning stages.
We seek to saturate Northeastern Hungary with the gospel and with equipped Hungarian saints who would faithfully carry out their unique callings in the local church, local community and beyond.
Our team uses various tools to build bridges with those we are seeking to reach: Ev. material distribution, puppet ministry, summer camps, sports outreach (soccer, volleyball, baseball), English as a second language, Mother's of Preschool Club, Local Community Events, Children’s Ministry, DBS principles finding people of peace. We also have need of help in discipling and mentoring first generation Hungarian and Roma believers.
