Eddie and Carol Hendrix’s presence

The Szolnok church has been blessed this past week by Eddie and Carol Hendrix’s presence. Eddie came to hold a seminar for the people of the churches in this area. The seminar’s name was “The Secret of Christian Community.” The lecture, thoughts presented, the Scriptures and the way they were presented were very thought provoking. It focused on our relationship with each other as Christians in the same congregation, how we are to act towards each other, what to do when conflicts arise and what the root of our conflicts are as brothers and sisters. The topic is always needed among God’s people and the church in Szolnok is no different. I believe we were all brought closer to God, and to each other and now have a better view of the Father through this.

We are also thankful for Carol’s presence, as she spent time with many women, counseling, listening and encouraging them. She was a wonderful addition to and complemented the lecture series well.

Throughout the seminar mainly people from Szolnok came, with a couple from Miskolc attending the whole week. There were 3 visitors, and the daily attendance averaged 15.
We, as a church, are thankful for the encouragement.
