Goodbye Gyula, Akli and Uj Akli - our Mission week has finished!

After 8 days in the Ukrainian villages sadly our week has come to an end!  Our Medical, Dental and Hygienist teams have packed all their equipment away ready for  another year; our School team are packed and ready to go and finally our Community team who have concluded over 50 house pastoral visits are also saying their goodbyes! 

We have been royally hosted by our village host families, experienced such generous hospitality and been touched by so many heart wrenching stories- what a truly incredible week!  God  has been faithful answering prayers and keeping close to us protecting us so we can step out in faith for Him!

As I write we are have just crossed safely over the border into Romania so mobile data can be used as we are now in EU. We are heading to Budapest for a day of rest and relaxation before we arrive in good old England. 

Here's our final team photo in 34 degrees bright and sunny here for the next few days. 

See you in Claygate!

Eyes down for Bingo!

Gyula School Holiday Club off and running!

This year with over 140 children and 70 Youth the children's Mission in Gyula village is as busy as ever!  With the theme of water/creation and looking after our planet the children have learnt to sing Yellow Submarine with gusto today (I know tenuous link to  the theme but it was a big hit). Below are photos of the children having lunch outside and playing in their school garden - a fabulous 29 degrees here.  How beautiful Gods creation is for us to enjoy and to appreciate that He made everything!   Greetings from Gyula School!  -- Vicki Schmidt
