Gávavencselő

It was impossible to get a picture of the entire congregation at once, but about 50 people were present.  Gizella, the pastor's wife is on the far right.

 Saturday we were invited to visit the church in Gávavencselő, a small village about an hour and a half north of Debrecen.  This is a church started by Level One INSTE graduates Géza and Gizella Balog about a year ago. They recently were able to rent a house in which to meet.  Several people had to stand or sit around the corner where they couldn't see, but it is good they have their own building now.  The congregation was so happy to have us there and we enjoyed the entire service.

13 of the 16 students were present for the photo.  Their pastor and leader is on the far left.

The highlight for us was at the end of the service when the students who are beginning INSTE received their books.  Their pastor is the leader for the two groups and gave them some very good tips and lots of encouragement for their studies.  May God bless this church and these new INSTE groups!
