Start of mens mission ...

Friends,

Today is the start of the mens mission. Most of the day we will be travelling all meeting in Budapest.  Barry and Kim from HTC and Peter from Peters field United Reformed Church meet at 4am this morning and are now flying towards Budapest. I am flying in from Chicago.  In Budapest we will meet up with Klara (Akos' daughter) and Enniko (a friend of Andrew Ts).  Klara and Enniko will be our main translators for the trip.  They are very skilled linguists but more important than that mature sisters in Christ.
The itinery after all meeting up looks like this:
- Thu 3pm Pick up bibles in Budapest
- Thu 4pm Stop at Tesco for essentials
- Thu. 8pm ish arrive at border
- Thu late arrive in the villages
- Thu late meet with Ministers and 2 more translators from University (Sandor and Ferenc)
- Fri 9-5 .day 1 of elders mini alpha course - Fri 7pm evangelical village meeting #1
- Sat 9-5 day 2 for elders
- Sat 7pm evangelical village meeting #2
- Sun am village Church services
- Sun early pm start drive to border and on to Budapest
- Mon evening flight home

Being able to send these messages is very important to us.  It is such a comfort that there are so many of you supporting us in Prayer.  And this technology enables us to ask you very specifically for what to pray for.

The primary thing to pray for is that God really blesses the elders meetings.  That the Holy Spirit truly moves in that building moving the mens heart and that we communicate not in our strength but in his.  Pray that he gives us the words to say and in a way that challenges to the core but in love and gentleness and cultural sensitivity. 

Please specifically today that all the travel stuff works and weather is not bad and the border is easy.  Also that everyone meeting up at the right place and time works logistically but also that we comes focusing on this one purpose and really gel quickly together.

Love to you all,
Your brother in the risen Lord Jesus,
