Starting out (Wrocław, Poland)

This blog chronicles the trip that Bubu, Władek, and Jeff are taking across several Eastern European countries. We'll be visiting mission churches of the CREC and other friends in Bulgaria and Hungary, and doing a little sight-seeing on the side.

We leave from Wrocław, Poland — Bubu and Władek's home town — early tomorrow morning, Thursday. We'll go through Romania and arrive in Bulgaria on Friday. During the next several days, we hope to meet with people in the cities of Burgas, Plovdiv, and Sofia, and worship at the church in Burgas on Sunday.

On August 28 we drive from Bulgaria to Hungary. In Diósd, just outside the Hungarian capital of Budapest, we'll be seeing my friends Attila and Kati Hajdú and their family. We'll go to church with them on Sunday, and then Bubu and Władek are returning to Poland while I (Jeff) stay in Diósd where I'll be working for the church along with Attila for the next year.

Today I got to tour Wrocław with Bubu. It's a more than 1000-year-old place with a rich history and cultural heritage. Here are a couple of pictures — for more, take a look at my Wrocław photo album.
