Musings from the school in Gyula - (by Beth Sadler)

Greetings from Gyula! 

As we come to the end of our fourth day in the school it seems strange that it is all nearly over! Today we have had a wonderful time celebrating all things sheep. Making shepherds in art, meeting baaabra the puppet sheep, Singing “baa baa he’s the good shepherd” to name just a few. The children have been learning about how God is the good shepherd and they can be his sheep. We have consistently had around 140 children each day, this is a little lower than our limit of 180 due to the provision of a youth group this year. However it has meant that each child has got full use of all the activities in school. 

It is wonderful to feel so supported with love and prayer from Home. Please pray for energy levels of the English and the translators as we have our final celebration day tomorrow. Despite a few challenging children it has truly been a blessing to meet the wonderful children. 

We have been keeping busy with a wonderful range of activities in the evenings, dinner with our hosts, a village supper, milking cows, making jam and my personal favourite some (very sweaty) traditional Hungarian dancing. We are thoroughly spoilt by the warmth and hospitality of our hosts. Opening up their homes for us. Please keep them in your prayers until the end of the visits on Sunday.

Thank you again for your on going love, prayers and support back in England.
