Testimony:

I was born the second child in a small family from Komló, Hungary. Growning up I never heard much about God, Jesus, faith or religion until 1989 when Communism fell in Hungary. Through a chain of events, God worked in my life and in the life of my whole family so that we found ourselves attending a protestant church. This is where I first heard the gospel, the good news and I understood that I needed to make a decision to live with or without Jesus. Although I understood the situation, I decided that I was not yet ready to life with Jesus. Reversly my parents and sister each made the right decision and around the same time all made decisions to give their lives to the Lord. I noticed how my family started to work in the light of God. I really liked the changes that they went through and I started to envy them. There came a time when I encountered a change in threir lives, which totally broke me. Finally everything came together and I wanted to make my own this gospel message, which I already knew and understood. In this way I made that decision which I should have long ago. God began to form my life, to change me. As the result of that making that decision, I came into contact with the ministry of Word of Life Hungary, where I am serving together with my wife. It is good to know and experience that we have a God who has always been and will always be faithful to us, no matter what happens.
