Exciting news....

As some of you may know, we started the application process with OMS International (One Mission Society) in October 2009. Though Viktor has been a national worker with OMS Hungary since 1999, we had yet to transition into the missionary status as a family. After completing hours of paperwork and attending interviews (they even interviewed Emily!) at the OMS HQ in Greenwood, IN, we are excited to report that we have been formally accepted as missionaries to Hungary!

What does this mean? Well, Viktor still has two years left in the Master of Divinity program at Asbury Seminary. However, we sensed the Lord challenging us to move ahead with the process in order to be that more "ready" to go to Hungary once his schooling is complete. This will also allow us to slowly begin raising support and partners in ministry while Viktor is working on his degree. Though this will prove to be challenging as he is still working part-time and attending school full-time, we trust God will not give us more than we can handle. We look forward to continue sharing what God is doing in Hungary. Viktor has been "gone" from the Hungary field for almost 7 years to continue in his education in order to better serve. Needless to say, we, and our fellow ministry partners, are anxious for him to return.

We are grateful for your prayers as we continue in this journey! Thank you to all of you who faithfully stand behind us financially and in prayer. You are a blessing!
