Youth Camp

We enjoyed a good breakfast of sandwiches and tea.

Tuesday we traveled an hour and a half north of Debrecen to spend the day at the Open Bible youth camp near Tokaj.  Dozens of youth from Hungarian Open Bible Churches were present including 13 from Tomor.  We were treated to breakfast, lunch and supper.  Marika Gulyás is the much-loved camp cook and she made delicious paprikás csirke (paprika chicken) for supper.  We heard stories about how former International Ministries Director Paul Canfield loved his paprikás csirke.

Jethro translating for Mike

The main reason we went to the camp was to speak in the morning sessions.  Jethro Gulyás translated for us and did a fantastic job.  He was a little nervous, since this was his first time translating in front of a group, but he did very well.  Jethro, his wife Kata and their twin baby daughters are in Hungary for a good part of the summer visiting family.  In September they return to Kuwait where Jethro and Kata teach in a special needs school.

We enjoyed our day at youth camp.  The young people were attentive and receptive.  We told about how God had changed our lives at youth camps and we pray that the lives of each of these campers will be changed for eternity this week.
