Day 20, Budapest

Today our lecture was on evangelism. It was one of the best ones I have ever heard. The speaker, Adam (something), really spread out the skeleton of sharing the gospel, and then went back and added the flesh to his lecture. Really really good stuff. After lecture we had lunch together and then went out for street outreach. At a busy intersection we set up speakers and mics and me and the other guys played worship songs to draw crowds. I played the mandolin, Jarrod and Ruslan played the guitar, and Chris played percussion. It sounded really good! A large crowd gathered and the rest of the group worked through the crowd sharing the gospel. After a few songs, one guy shared his testimony, then we had some preaching and call to accept Christ, then repeated everything three times. Play, testimony, preaching (x3).

One of the girls handed a man a flyer that invited him to coffee house on Friday (it was in Hungarian). He said he didnt speak Hungarian, and that opened up an opportunity to speak with him. Through the conversation we found out that he was a Muslim, and we were able to share the gospel with him and he asked for a Bible so that he could read it. One of the guys gave him his Bible and he said that he wanted to come to coffee house tomorrow. I cant wait to hear the rest of the stories from the group.

I leave for Vienna this weekend, so pray that those of us who go wont have any problems while we are gone.

Pray that the Muslim who asked for the Bible today reads it and realizes that Jesus Christ is the real Lord and Savior, and that he comes to coffee house so we can continue to share with him.
