"The tree of life looked good but was the only thing in the world to bring death. The cross looked bad but was the the only thing in the world to bring life."

Ronnie Stephens, our pastor here in Budapest



Nothing says spring like a lawn full of fluffy, frisky puppies on a sunny spring day! Our dog Reagan had 5 puppies late February.



Another sign of spring is boys playing baseball. Quentin gets his dream that he has had for several years. He is now playing ball for the "Diosd Dodgers" little league team. (Never mind the Braves baseball hat!)




I helped run a baseball clinic for kids in our community here in the suburbs of Budapest. We expected 10-15 kids and over 50 turned out! Here I am (on the right with the red jersey) explaining to the kids the true meaning of Easter and what Jesus's death on the cross means.

Budapest is a beautiful city, especially at night. Here is the Chain Bridge and St. Matthias Church.
