The visit of our Serbian brothers

"And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken."
(Isaiah 62:12)

Between the 8th-9th of August the groups of the Debeljaca Reformed Church from Serbia were visiting Oradea during their Transylvanian trip. 42 members adn the 2 pastors of the Hungarian speeking congregation from the Voivodina part of Serbia (former Yugoslavia) were the guests of both the congregations of Chesereu and Oradea-Olosig (Nagyvárad-Olaszi).

Our guests were eating at the Lorantffy Zsuszanna Church Center, visiting the church museum there and sightseeing in the city.

Here we are saying thanks for Rev. Attila Veres-Kovács, the pastor of the Nagyvárad-Olaszi congregation for inviting our guests and being our guide in the city. May God bless the women's association members of the Orade congregation for prepairing the meals and for the members of the chesereu church for donating food for this purpose.

Kedves Oroszi nagytiszteletű úr! Ön valóban gyors. Mi, a kirándulók még haza sem értünk, amikor az önök blogján megjelent látogatásunk híre.
Isten áldja kedves mindnyájukat.
Kedves Magdi és Kálmán, puszilunk benneteket. Az úton hihetetlenül jól haladtunk, fél ötre (Belgrádi) hazaértünk.
Minden jót, Karesz
