Hungarian Brass in Vacegres

We have two new players in the Hungarian Brass. The trumpet player is awesome! He is an incredible trumpet player! His name is Janos Hamori. In English, Janos means John. The trombonist is very, very good, too. Mark Alfoldi-Boruss is his name. Mark did not have the benefit of much practice with us before he played in the concert today. We practiced for 90 minutes before the concert. Janos played with us earlier this month when we did the recording for our new CD. But, let me tell you, these two young men are so good that they can sightread the music and play like they have played it dozens of times.

Am I excited? Better believe it! Wow!

We are missing one of our trombonists for six months, Krisztian Csapo. He is working on a cruise ship to earn money so he can get married next August. He is an incredible trombonist, so, we really miss him. But, this group that we have right now is really good. Praise the Lord!

Lynne is excited, too! She really enjoys working with these young men and they become like sons to her.

The church in Vacegres loves, loves, loves music! We played 14 songs and I sang two solos. They would have gladly stayed for more. The pastor, Endre Varady, is a fine young pastor. By the way, he and his wife have a 7 day old daughter and they are thrilled.

I spoke to the congregation on Judges 11:29 where Jephthah was filled with the Spirit and led the nation at a critical time in war. Jephthah suffered much in his childhood and had trouble dealing with his past. After he prayed, giving his problems to God, Jephthah was a changed man. This message speaks to a needy world today. Two people raised their hands in the meeting responding to the message.

What a great day!
