First night of coffee house outreach / Recycled in the news again

We'll soon be heading out the door to set  up for the first night of our coffee house here in Debrecen (Zsuzsanna guest house basement, Péterfia u. 34, near the Debrecen Plaza.)  There'll be coffee, snacks, games, and English conversation for anyone who wants to drop in any time between 8 and 10...there was going to be live piano music, too, but unfortunately the pianist, Viktor "Jimmy" Fercsik, has gotten sick and won't be able to play for us tonight.  Please pray he feels better soon.  Lots of nasty bugs going around these days.  Also pray that this new outreach will provide many opportunities for relationship-building and sharing.

Someone at the Euro School gave Gary a photocopy of yesterday's article about the Recycled concerts here in Debrecen.  Here is what they said...

...and here's my rough translation.   Any Hungarians out there may feel free to correct it for me and my feelings won't be hurt (this language definitely keeps me humble!)

Recycled in Music

The American Christian classic/alternative rock music group Recycled has made their debut in Hungary. Their first concert in Debrecen was held in the gymnasium belonging to the Euro High School/Tech School and Baptist Bilingual High School at Angyalföld Square. The school's English lector, Gary Miller, arranged for the program. In their songs the band gave voice to Christian feelings and interpretation of Bible stories. The following day they were on stage at the Bridge Cultural Center on Miklós Street.
