April----- Aprilis

 

April weather in Missouri: you just never know! One day it is 85F degrees and sunny and windy, next day it is 60F degrees and cloudy..... it literally alternates like that! So we have our winterjackets, flip-flops, rainboots and sunscreen at hand always. Aprilisi idojaras Missouri-ban: sosem lehet tudni! Egyik nap 33 fok van es sut a nap es fuj a szel, masnap 15 fok es esore all.... szo szerint igy valtakozik az ido! Ugyhogy mindig keszenletben tartjuk a telikabatot, papucsot, gumicsizmat es naptejet! Barmi lehet! 

Benjamin is really enjoying living here on campus. There is a big green hill right in front of our house and a big playground. There are lots of kids in the neighborhood and they are always running around and playing. So he has a lot of friends. He is almost 2 and a half now, potty-trained, wears 3T size clothes and size 8 shoes. Benike nagyon szeret itt lakni. Van egy nagy zold domb a hazunk elott es egy nagy jatszoter. Rengeteg gyerek van a szomszedsagban, akik mindig kint jatszanak es szaladgalnak. Igazi gyerek-paradicsom. Sok kis jatszopajtasa van. Mar majdnem 2 es fel eves ugy no mint a gomba. 

 Here you can see our new pets, 2 little minnows. Scott and Benjamin caught them in the Lake of the Ozarks. We haven`t named them because we are planning to throw them back in the lake in June. Benjamin loves to watch them and feed them. We originally had 3 of them, but one of them snapped after 2 days and decided to jump. I found him in the morning under the couch dried out.   Itt lathatjatok a ket uj kis haziallatunkat, a halakat. Scott es Benike fogta oket az Ozark tobol. nem adtunk nekik nevet, mert juniusban ugyis visszadobjuk oket a toba. Benike nagyon szereti nezni es etetni oket. Eredetileg 3 hal volt, de az egyik nem birta tovabb es 2 nap utan kiugrott. En talaltam meg reggel kiszaradva a fotel alatt. 

 A week ago we had the pleasure to have Tom and Kim Dryer visit us here in Missouri. They came all the way from Michigan. We had so much fun, the guys went fishing for fish, we girls went fishing for good deals and the outlet mall. We also visited the Bridal Cave which is a beautiful cave. We were truly blessed by their company all weekend!
Egy hettel ezelott abban a szerencseben vagy inkabb aldasban volt reszunk, hogy jo barataink, Tom es Kim meglatogattak minket Michigan-bol. Nagyon jo volt minden egyutt toltott kis ido. A fiuk elmentek pecazni, mi lanyok pedig vasarolni. A Menyasszony Barlangot is megneztuk, ami egy gyonyoru termeszeti kincs.

Some news: NEHANY HIR:

 Edina stepped out of the Linguistics course... It has been very difficult to keep up with the 8-10 hours of homework daily. I had to neglect the house, Benjamin and everything else. I also realized that i didnt enjoy it at all. I LOVE to learn languages but analysing them? mmm...not so much! :)

So I have total peace about the decision and I am enjoying spending a lot of time with 

Benjamin and Scott.   (This course was an EXTRA course, only optional. I have already graduated from the church planting training!)

Edina kilepett a nyelveszeti treningbol. Nagyon nehez volt a napi 8-10 oranyi hazi feladat mellett ellatni a hazat, a csaladot. Arra is ra kellett jonnom, hogy nem nekem valo volt. Nem szerettem ezt a fajta nyelveszeti elemzest, az agyam nincs ra beallitva. Nagyon szeretek nyelveket tanulni. De elemezni oket? mmm....azt mar nem annyira! :) Ugyhogy teljes bekessegunk van a dontes felol, es mostmar sok idot tolthetek Scottal es Benikevel. (Ez egy EXTRA, valaszthato kurzus volt. A gyulekezetplantalasi kikepzest befejeztem decemberben!)

 Scott continues to be full-time staff  here at the Missionary Training Center. He is doing a lot of computer work, all surveying related for the building projects. Scott tovabbra is teljes ideju munkatarskent dolgozik itt a Misszios Kikepzo Kozpontban. Sokat dolgozik a szamitogepen, mind foldmeresi es tervezesi dolgok az epitesi projektekhez. 

 Benjamin is potty trained!Now that I dont have classes I have the chance to spend a lot of time with him. That made it easy to finally potty train him... after a year of trying. Benjamin szobatiszta! Most hogy mar nem kell orakra jarnom, egesz nap vele vagyok. Ez megkonnyitette, hogy vegre megszabaduljunk a pelenkatol.... amivel mar egy eve probalkozunk. 

 We are moving up to Michigan in June. We are planning to spend a full year there doing Partnership Development (or deputation). We need to raise our support to be able to go to the field. (We are preparing for tribal church planting in Asia). 
Juniusban koltozunk vissza Michigan-be! Egy teljes evet tervezunk ott tolteni ahol a tamogatasunkat kell osszegyujtenunk. Azsiaba keszulunk teljes ideju szolgalatba, torzsi gyulekezetplantalasra. 

Thank you for reading! 

Koszonjuk hogy elolvastad levelunket!

There are times when the Lord just burdens something on your heart and you cannot escape from it. 

YOu have to deal with it. It is usually best to bring it right back to Him. He always knows what to do. 

So many times I take my eyes off Him and focus on myself. The end is always CONFUSION. 

So I sat down with Him this morning to just hang out...... I decided to read through Galatians in the Bible. 

And He had so much to tell me. I got so many reminders of who HE is and where His heart is. I was greatly challenged. 

I loved how the little message-crumbs all came together by the end to make a delicious and fresh loaf of Blessing! Just what I needed. 

THE CRUMBS:

 i am sent NOT from man, or by man, but BY JESUS CHRIST and GOD THE FATHER

 What is God`s ? That everyone should hear the Gospel and get saved.

 Am I trying to win the approval of men or of God? Jesus NEVER tried to please men. Only the Father. 

 I want God to reveal His Son in me. 

 I want to see through God's eyes, have the same passion that He is passionate about. 

 Do people praise God because me?

 God is at work in my ministry. 

 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. 

 After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?

 What has happened to all your joy?

 A little yeast works through the whole dough. 

 You were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature. Rather, serve one another in love. 

 The fruit of the Spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS, SELF-CONTROL. 

 Carry each other's burdens. 

 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give . As we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. 

 I bear on my body the marks of Jesus. 

SUMMARY:

It is about HIM not about me. 

 This is our new prayer card.
