The Lynch Family Mission Newsletter

Hello from Hungary!
God has given us such tremendous opportunities to serve the last 4 months. It seems each day brings new blessings to remind us that its all about HIM and glorifying HIM. As a family, our passion and desire to serve God grows with each day. Whether its in evangelistic outreaches such as our Bible Club or the day to day activities and discipleship in the Bible Institute. As June is now upon us and the school year ending we are preparing for the summer camp ministry which starts in the middle of June. We cant wait to see what God will do in the lives of the campers and counselors this summer. Last summer about 840 kids came to camp and over 220 accepted Christ as their Savior! Danny & Cori are very excited for camp to get started. They get to experience their first Hungarian summer camp with boys and girls their age and serve in the ministry in several areas with mom and dad. Matt will be serving in the sports activities and I will be teaching English. Its hard to believe but as of June 8th, Bobby officially graduated from high school. Wow!!! Were very excited for him as he takes these next steps in life. This summer he will be serving in several areas of the camp, primarily with the studio where he will be helping with the pictures and videos of all the summer fun. Amazing Opportunity for our family this summer!!! Lord willing, we will be traveling to the Czech Republic for one week and to Poland for one week to serve in local churches for their VBS & English camps with International Ministries.

Joshua 3.15-17 NIV

15 Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the waters edge, 16 the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan, while the water flowing down to the Sea of the Arabah (that is, the Dead Sea) was completely cut off. So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.

Ministry Update: Bible Club

God teaches us amazing things through children. One of our beloved leaders recently said, If you want to really learn something...teach it to a child. It is SO true! Witnessing the ministry grow and see the excitement in the childrens eyes as they grew in their faith was truly special. As a club, we met every Friday afternoon and learned about the 12 apostles. The ministry really took off and its been amazing to see how God has grown it. Roughly 6 kids came the first week. The next week we had 16. At our final meeting before the summer break we had upwards of 24 kids in the house learning about God! Many of these children accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior! Praise God! Danny and Cori were especially encouraged in their faith because, as you read in our last newsletter, they spent many afternoons handing out invitations around the village after school. Looking forward to next fall when we start back up again!

As we have embraced this mission, many of you know we have adopted the phrase "Step Out to Find Out..." Hence, the title of our newsletterSteppin' Out. God clearly put this on our hearts, but we didn't always know exactly what that looked like. SOMETIMES, in faith, we just had to take the step and find out what God was going to do. Like Joshua crossing the Jordan, SOMETIMES, God requires us to take that step before He does anything. Are you willing to take that step God might be asking you to take in your life? Step out and find out what great things God has planned for you!

MINISTRY CONTINUED: The Bible Institute

Over the last 4 months we have been tremendously blessed as we were able to see God at work in the lives of the Bible Institute students. The mission of the Bible Institute is to help men and women develop the strong biblical foundation necessary to be godly servant leaders in the Christian community. In addition to taking classes, Matt served with the deans dept which handles student life while I (Bridget) was able to help students with their English, review papers, and grading. We grew to know them very well, and as we built relationships with them the students sort of adopted our kids as siblings and we sort of adopted them too. Never thought wed walk into our living room and there would be young people from Hungary, Poland, the Czech, Serbia, Quebec, and America (to name a few) singing praise songs and fellowshipping together as we provided a home away from home. There were a lot of emotional goodbyes with the end of the school year but its been a awesome getting to know them, hearing their testimonies, investing in them, encouraging them to make godly decisions and in living a godly life, and now sending them out to serve in literally all parts of the world. We can't wait to see and hear the amazing things God will do through them. So excited for the fall and next years class!

When saying hello in Hungarian you often say Szia pronounced see -ya and when you say goodbye you often say Hallo? Sound confusing to you??? A couple times we have been on the phone with our Hungarian friends and when they said Hallo we thought they couldnt hear us so we said Hallo back and then we heard the phone hang up. Yes, we are learning :)
