It is on the same plot of ground as the school dining facility, and had been refurbished for use as a well-located and much needed girl's dormitory. The school is producing new committed Christian leaders for a new generation. The seminary has already graduated two classes of ministers since it reopened, and is about to graduate a third. These young men and women will serve in Hungary, Ukraine, Romania and Slovakia. For those in our mission study group the most exciting thing we saw was a beginning ministry to gypsies in Ukraine.
Gypsies are a despised and neglected minority in all of eastern Europe.
The Reformed Church in Ukraine, out of its own desperate poverty, is reaching beyond its natural constituency to bring the gospel to the gypsy population. We were privileged to worship in a full and lively gypsy church on a Sunday afternoon and to talk with church people about beginning more gypsy churches and school. The gospel is alive and well among the Hungarian Reformed Christians With our help they can lay hold of the great opportunity that has come to them almost exactly a thousand years since Christianity first came to Hungary.
