Weekend outreach in Baja, Hungary

This semester's first weekend outreach is now behind. It was pretty amazing, and God taught me a bunch of new things, and reminded me of things I needed to be reminded of. Our team consisted of three guys and six girls, which makes nine in total. We left on Friday around 5pm and took a train from Vajta to Baja, which only took two hours or so. As soon as we got to the church we participated in their youth group. We worshiped the Lord together, and  our team leader Ryan taught a 30-minute Bible study on Exodus. Afterwards the teenager boys there loved to wrestle with Maks, our Ukrainian team member! He seemed to be like a big brother to them. The only girl in the youth group was this very sweet girl, Anna. She came to spend some time with us on Saturday also, which was super nice.
On Saturday morning we had breakfast and devotions together, and went street witnessing. A team of Hungarians from Budapest joined us to help with translating. The people there were quite open to the gospel and I heard that two people even got saved, which is amazing. In the evening we had dinner and worship together and cleaned to church for Sunday morning.
On Sunday we had church at 9.30am, and we were blessed to be able to partake communion and be present at a baby dedication. After the service everyone stayed for agape feast, for which people had brought different kinds of food and dessert. Everything I ate was amazing, I don't think I had been that full from eating ever since I came to Hungary!
All in all the weekend was a huge blessing and we I though our team worked great together. I'm happy that next week is Speakers' week and we won't have normal classes, because I'm tired and not exactly in the mood of doing homework right now. :D I won't even be working in the library till Thursday, thanks to Jemma!
