Baptism, then School

We were so happy last Sunday to attend a baptismal service at the Shalom Open Bible Church here in Debrecen. Three people were baptized, all over 50 years old. The eldest was Constantine, who is 85 (see picture)! What a joyful service that was! We praise the Lord for His power to change lives!
The meal after the service was wonderful, too! The ladies served us stuffed cabbage. Yumm!
Immediately after lunch we went to the University to register for the summer intensive language course. We took a written and an oral test for placement in the appropriate classes for our current proficiency level. We are both at the intermediate level, but were placed in separate classes.
Classes began Monday, six lessons a day, five days a week, for four weeks. We also receive cultural, phonetic, and history lessons. That makes for very busy, interesting days. That said, time to do homework!
