November 2023 Prayer Letter

The Big Move:

On September 10th we began having services in the much larger auditorium located in the same building as our coffee shop. We continue to use the coffee shop on Sundays as our fellowship area and for the children’s ministry, but our main worship service is now upstairs in the main auditorium. The move has gone really well, and we are so thankful for the additional space. Our worship team is enjoying having a much larger platform, and I also enjoy having room to walk around while I preach. The empty seats remind us of our mission – to reach even more people with the Gospel!

4-Year Anniversary:

Enlarge the place of your tent! This was my message on September 24th when we celebrated our church’s 4th anniversary. We had a great attendance with around 130 people present. I cast the vision for a healthy church that will continue to grow and expand in outreach and influence. That Sunday concluded a 4-week sermon series that we called “Refocus”, where we strove to once again emphasize the unique mission and purpose of Focus Church Budapest!



 





Continued Growth:

We are excited to experience continued growth in the church. One special blessing is an increase in families with young children. One recent Sunday we had 11 children ages 4 and under. We also have two new families attending with elementary aged kids. On November 26th we will be launching a new Sunday school class for preschool children. We are looking forward to reaching even more families with the Gospel!

 


New Members:

On October 29th we received 7 more adults into the church membership. We now have 85 members. Each new member brings unique gifts and abilities. It is exciting to see the Lord continue to build His church!





 

Thank you so much for your faithful prayers and support of our ministry! God bless!
