Are you a native English speaker? God can use you on mission in Hungary!

| Carolyn with adult beginner English class from several years ago |
On the first day of English camp the Hungarian pastor warned us
that one of our students was known in the town as a strong atheist...and at first she did
seem closed. Even her face had a hardness
about it. But throughout the week, as the
love of Christ was shown and Christian testimonies shared, a visible change took
place. By the end of the camp she was
leaning forward in her chair, tears in her eyes. No, she didn't come to faith
that week, but soon she began attending the church's seekers' class. The following summer at camp registration my
jaw almost dropped at the change in her -- she hurried to greet me, her countenance
softer and a new twinkle in her eye. The Gospel was working in her life in a powerful, transforming way....
All across Hungary similar stories have taken place as English
as a Second Language (ESL) is used to
open doors for sharing the Gospel. There
is a huge need for this kind of outreach--Hungarians of all ages are constantly asking for
English language help from native speakers.
Who is qualified to come minister using ESL? If you are a strong believer and speak
English (which I assume you do if you are reading this!) then you could come provide
conversation practice or teach at a camp, coffeehouse, school or in many other venues. Formal ESL training is helpful but not required. We are also
looking for certified teachers who could come to teach a semester or year in the
public schools. Pray with us that God
will raise up many volunteers to come help with this exciting ministry!
