     UPDATE FROM MEG

            Summer is the time for camp!  Here at Whetstone even the Vacation Bible School theme is “Camp E.D.G.E.” this year, and church camp is coming up next month.  In Hungary people are preparing for camp, too!  English camp is coming soon, and we’d appreciate your prayers.  These camps are a time God uses to draw people to Himself, and we want to pray that God would be preparing people’s hearts right now, just like the people leading and volunteering at English camps are preparing the lessons and activities.

            As a new parent, I’m realizing the great blessing and responsibility God is giving me to raise my child and introduce him to his Heavenly Father.  As a church, we have that same blessing and responsibility to invest in the lives of the young people in our congregation and in our neighborhoods.  As Christians, let’s not forget about God’s call to reach out to those even in far-off places who need to be introduced to Him.  Just like the responsibilities of parenting are far outweighed by the blessing, our involvement in world missions brings great blessings to our lives, as well as the lives that are touched by the gospel.  The kids at Camp E.D.G.E. are getting involved in God’s work in Hungary, how can you plug in to world missions?  How can you be a part of introducing people to our Lord and Savior?

            Gabor and I are preparing to return to Hungary at the end of this summer.  We’re really looking forward to being a part of the work God is doing there.  Before we can return, we need to be fully funded so we can focus on the ministry there.  Will you join us in prayer that God will provide for us financially so we can serve Him in Hungary?  Will you pray about what your role can be in world missions?  And will you pray that God will prepare us for the ministry He has for us?

                             OPERATION LOVE MINISTRIES

    Our July mission is a food drive for Operation Love.  They can use any imperishable food, such as canned goods, flour, sugar, etc.  They can also use paper products, cleaning products, and personal hygiene products.  We will be collecting the whole month of July, so every Sunday when you come to church, bring an item for Operation Love with you.
