Gosia and her husband, Shamack get us settled into the train for Budapest….thanks Gosia!!!The train ride was such fun! We were all in one room with three bunks and we fit! It was a little like
camping out, but you just didn’t have to go so far for the rest room and they served you coffee in the morning. I felt pampered.
Last view of Warsaw from our train bunk room.
Harrison has the “Hatcher blood”…can sleep anywhere.
The ride into Budapest was beautiful and I knew I would like this city before we even got here. After debarking at the train station, we checked our luggage in the storage. The man told me it would be three thousand five hundred and I almost fell over. The dollar value of that is about $21.00, but it sure sounded a lot more expensi
ve.
We took the city tour and were constantly astonished by the beauty of the city. Every corner we turned seemed to hold a new beautiful view. It also helped we were on a double decker bus. The boys loved it. We hopped off at a stop and as God would have it we ran right into a bookstore. The bookstore had
great children’s Bibles in Hungarian for about $13.00 American. We purchased 10 and found a Burger King to fuel up.
After lunch we stood next to a bus stop and started offering Bibles. It occurred to me as we started that each time we do this I start off a little nervous, almost anxious because I know we will be turned down. And we always are. Then I start praying in the Spirit….
We gave all our Bibles away and several people were thrilled to get them. One group of young girls listened attentively as we shared the Gospel. I knew they spoke little English, yet they seemed to want to know more.
Ali, from France actually came back and asked if we had a Bible in English he could have. I promised that I would mail him one, if he would email me his address. We prayed for Ali to find the right job and for God to draw him closer to Him. I felt we had made a fast friend with him.
Ali teaches Hatcher, pray for Ali to recognize the gifts God has given him
Andrew is Hungarian and had just lost his wallet. We prayed for God to return his wall
et and Hatcher beautifully prayed for the thief to feel convicted and confess his sin. We gave Andrew some money and it was difficult for him to take it. I could tell he was really intereste
d in Jesus and asked if he wanted to ask Him into his heart now. “I really need to think about this.” I know God will work His way into his heart and life.
Please pray for Andrew to come to know the LordOur last Polish Bible went to our new friends from Krakow. When we heard them say yes in Polish, we knew they were from Poland.
