Remembering Marika

Marika was a great cook and loved ministering to others

Sunday we heard the sad news that Marika (Mary) Gulyas had gone to be with the Lord.  She lost her battle with cancer, but won a place near the throne of God.  We will miss Marika very much.  She was beautiful woman of God who worshipped Him with all her heart and served others with passion.  She was the matriarch of the Open Bible Churches in Hungary, ministering alongside her husband Misi (Michael) Gulyas, the Hungarian Open Bible Field Director.
Marika's passion was cooking and she was good at it, eager to serve sandwiches after church services or full meals to a hundred or more guests.
She especially loved young people, encouraging, teaching, and pouring her life into them in ways that led them to Jesus and changed their lives.
She is already missed by everyone in the Open Bible Churches in Hungary, but most of all by her family, her three children, their spouses and her three grandchildren. Our hearts hurt for Misi, her husband, who loved her through their many years together.
We will miss you, too, Marika!  Thank you for loving us and for loving Jesus.
