Some of the local villages (not ours) have open air farmers markets twice a week, Thursday and Saturday. Last week a team went to the Jászberény market (pronounced - yaz bare rain, you roll the “r”s with your tongue) to witness. People responded much better to evangelism at the village market than at the city squares. They take the time to listen and talk with us in the village as apposed to the city where where many more brushed by without even looking up. There were many wonderful spiritual conversations with a few first time commitments to Jesus! Below are some sites from the Nagykata market.
Kerékpár, (Bikes) (pronounced - care ick par) parked out front marked the entrance.
Virág, (Flowers) grow everywhere and many leave the market with some in their market baskets.
Hentes, (Butcher) (pronounced – hen tesh)– We do not recognize many of the meats on the wall, counter, or in the case.
Fresh fruit and veggies are available seasonally
Konyhaedények (pots and pans) for sale at the market
Hungary is famous for paprika (peppers) of every kind.
Market basket full of goods of the day
Templom (church) in the village. I believe it is Eastern Orthodox.

These photos look like something out of a magazine...so colorful and telling of the culture there. I love the quaintness of the village life...something most Americans will never know. This is a privilege!
We appreciate your updates and sharing of your lives with us.
Love and prayers are always with you...
Greg and Carol
