Mike and Sarah and their two kids, Andrew and Katie, have begun a new ministry in the city of Nyíregyháza in Eastern Hungary. Nyíregyháza is a city of about 120,000 people, and is one of the centers in the country for educating people with disabilities (Andrew was born with Down syndrome). Please pray for continued growth in speaking Hungarian and for opportunities to personally meet with people and study the Bible.

Country Info
Hungary has been part of Christian Europe since 1,000 A.D., and has a long, diverse history. The largest influences on the country have been the 400 year Turkish occupation, the rule by the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, and the land treaties following the two World wars. Hungary is a very independent country, although it is part of the European union. They were one of the first countries to throw off Soviet rule in 1989, and have a modern, capitalistic economy. The country is governed by a prime minister and parliament, which today are largely politically and socially conservative.
