Peter Toth, tel. 732-541-5051 or Ms Piroska Hunyady, Coordinator, tel 732-381-6413 THE SOURCE OF INSPIRATION FAITH. Faith is a mover of mountains and there is nothing that God cannot do. Throughout our lives we face many obstacles, things that stand in our way and obstructs our vision and our dreams. The road is rough and our burdens are heavy. We get tired and weary and wish the race were run, but faith in God will always lighten it when it becomes too much to bear. For God in love and mercy is always near to share it. Almighty God is the source of our strength. “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.’’Isaiah 43:1 LOVE. “Love is patient and kind, love is not jealous or boastful, it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way, it is not irritable or resentful, it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love never ends.” 1 Corinthians 4-8 HOPE. Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain. All days cannot be bright. Laughter, pleasure, teardrops and pain come and go. There was never a cloud the sun did not shine through. A smile can brighten our day. “When they were discouraged, I smiled and that encouraged them, and lightened their spririts.”Job 29:24 BLESSINGS. We are all blessed with a responsibility; caring about and loving all God’s creations. When we think of our role as a blessing, we bless our world and environment. Children are the world’s future and we do our best to ensure that they receive the guidance and love they need. If circumstances require that we become caregivers for our parents, we do so with faith and acceptance that all things are in divined order. We are blessed by being kind to others. “Those who are kind reward themselves.’’Proverbs 11:17 P.H. YOUTH CONFERENCE 1998 We are making final preparations for 1998 Annual Youth Conference. The dates of the Conference are August 2-8. The location will be the same as last year, the Laurelville Mennonite Church Center in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, near Ligonier. The theme this year will be YOUTH IN GOD’S SERVICE, Joshua 24:15 We would like to inform you that the Hungarian Reformed Federation of America would pay $25 toward the camp fee for any young person who is a member of the Federation. The Federation will reimburse the $25 directly to the individual. For this reason, it is important that the entire registration fee be sent with the registration form. Please reserve the days of August 2 to 8 on your calendar so that you may join us. If you cannot come for the whole week, come for just a few days or a few hours, to be involved with our joint youth conference efforts. Hoping to see all of you at camp!
