Hungary
UCB HungaryThe history of UCB Hungary began in 2002 when Baptist pastor, Nándor Nemes started to translate Bob Gass’s daily devotionals The Word for Today after it made a great impression on him personally. First the work began in his own church, then all over the country with the help of a Christian foundation, SEER Romania. Nandor strove for getting these devotionals to as many people as possible, meeting a rising demand with it.
In the spring of 2008, the Hungarian distribution contacted UCB with the purpose of building a common organisation to reach even more people with The Word for Today. The goal was to reach Hungarian people with God’s living and vital message by utilizing media. UCB Hungary began offically operating on the 14th September 2009. The foundation managed to hand 15,000 copies of The Word for Today devotionals in the Hungarian language in the first quarter of 2009. In 2010 it distributed 31000 copies and 54000 copies in the first quarter of 2011. By August 2011 the foundation has distributed almost 367,000 Hungarian language versions of The Word for Today.
The purpose of UCB Hungary as part of UCB is to see people’s lives being changed for good through radiating and spreading the good news of Jesus Christ. Changing Lives for Good!
Current Update
Since September 2009 we have been trying to get God’s message through The Word for Today to as many as possible, as a self-supporting, independent foundation. Because of the constantly rising demand, in the third quarter of 2011 we began spreading 70 000 copies per edition. It is great to see that such a large number of people wants to understand God’s message and is thirsty for biblical content.
At present there are about 40-50 volunteers working with us at our foundation. When the copies are published, we spread them, in the course of which we need much help with packaging. We give glory to the Lord that many people hear the call to help in a practical way in the mission of The Word for Today and our foundation.
The message of The Word for Today is available online at www.ucbhungary.org where we also provide the audio version the daily devotional.
We are in close contact with our subscribers (via correspondence, telephone or internet connection). We continue to receive positive testimonies which encourage us to continue this ministry. In the middle of May 2011 we started to dsitribute the topical “Overcoming” series. The first edition of 20 000 copies was distirbuted on the topic of “Overcoming Addiction”.This popular topic has a lot of interest for many people. Many of our readers who suffer from addictions have indicated that “Overcoming Addiction” is a wonderful tool for them. Our plan for this year is to keep sending The Word for Today copies to existing and new subscribers while also intending to publish two additional editions of the Overcoming series as well.
