Szilárd is moving to Hungary this summer to serve with ACORNCAMPS for one to three years.

Over 50% of the Hungarian population claim to be Christian but for many it doesn’t affect their everyday life. Most reach adulthood without ever hearing the gospel of the Lord Jesus. 

ACORNCAMPS helps Hungarian churches reach teenagers for Christ. They equip and train youth leaders through conferences and a part-time course, as well as mentoring through local churches. They also run summer camps to help churches reach out to young people in their communities and provide further training for youth leaders.

Szilárd is from Hungary. Growing up, he had some Christian influence at home but it was not important to him. Szilárd came to London for university and there he began to realise who Jesus is. God used a Christian friend, the Christian Union and a local church to answer Szilárd’s questions and change his heart.
 
For the last two years Szilárd has been serving as a ministry intern at St James’ Church, Muswell Hill. He is involved with giving talks and leading bible studies for the youth group, alongside training on the Cornhill Bible Training Course. Szilárd has also served with ACORNCAMPS - leading activities, discussions and seminars on their summer camps.

From September this year, Szilárd will work with ACORNCAMPS to lead the youth groups at a placement church, as well as helping with admin and communications and serving on the summer camps. 

In order to live and serve in Hungary, Szilárd needs to raise £14,000 per year. This covers Crosslinks orientation, accommodation, food, transport, ministry costs and insurance. Please use the giving and prayer boxes on this page to set up a regular donation or sign up for Szilárd’s prayer news.
