Settling into village life


Early start for all teams today as we settled into village life! The School, Medical including Optician, Dental, Youth and Community all started working with the Hungarian people in the villages with a bang - so far so good! 

The pace was Ukrainian time rather than Surrey/London - these cows leave for the field at 6am and return to their houses (which they know without herding!) at 6pm for milking and are a charming reminder that life doesn't have to be hectic all the time!  Let's rest in the Lord and wait on Him... 

Greetings from Gyula and Akli

Toddlers Club - a first for the Ukraine Mission

Big hit yesterday as Toddlers Club was run for the first time in Gyula - kids and adults all had fun!  With over 20 children between 0-4 and their Carers the Community team led a session for 45 minutes with the theme of Noah's Ark complete with puppet story and Mr Cow song (big success!) It would be great to continue this Club next year :-) -- Vicki Schmidt

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! -- Vicki Schmidt
