Sunday: Worship with Satu Mare

Bonnie and I enjoy so much worshipping with the Satu Mare Hungarian Baptist Church. The morning began with a 9 AM prayer service followed by a Bible Study. Both were excellent. We really like the interaction and involvement of all the people in prayer. The Bible Study also had a lot of interaction (considering all the adults were in the sanctuary for the Bible Study). The singing is always a highlight of worship in Satu Mare. They have a wonderful choir and often sing A Cappella. Floyd preached during the morning service. The sanctuary was full of people--the main floor and the balcony--there were many new faces which was a joy for us.

In the afternoon service, the choir sang, a children's teachers choir shared testimonies and sang, former members from Hungary were home visiting and sang, the brass band played several numbers, Bonnie shared a brief message, and Floyd preached. The worship service was a moving experience of God's presence. We missed Zoltan leading the worship. He remains in the hospital and we will visit with him tomorrow. Tomorrow night we will share with the Satu Mare church about Telelios Ministry and our partnerships. This will also be the time for the weekly prayer service.
