On a very hot and humid Monday on July 31, 2017, we made another long drive (4.5 hours) to Battonya to visit with 4 families in the Stop the Cycle of Poverty program. We were greated with warm, friendly smiles and welcomed into each of these homes. We were again impressed at the cleanliness and order of their homes despite their humble living conditions. Each family had unique challenges and each family was working hard to overcome those challenges.
I noticed that Kriszti had shelves with bottles apricots in her storage area and complimented her on them. She quickly pulled out a bottle of apricot jam to give me. I felt so awkward to take her food, but was very appreciative of her generosity and thanked her with a big smile and köszönöm szépen.
These people live in such humble circumstances but are very appreciative of the help they are receiving. It is so wonderful to be able to be a part of helping them to change their lives and "stop the cycle of poverty."

| Our all time favorite project. Can hardly wait to get these two cleaned up and spoil them with hugs and kisses like any grandparent would do. Love you Avery and Hannah! We might have to take you to Hungary to live with us so you aren't so neglected by your parents! :) |
