I was born in Hungary into a large, believing family and I still live here today with my family, whose presence is important to me. My wife and six wonderful children inspire me every day to set a good example in my work and in all areas of life. I am a construction professional, bricklayer and architect with over 20 years of experience. In my work, the goal is not profit but livelihood (but profit is necessary for livelihood), so I strive not only to do a good job, but also to create real value for the community. I believe that work is not only about material goods, but also an opportunity to create relationships and bear witness to our faith.
I started my studies in 1990 in Hódmezővásárhely and became a Mason there, and after graduation I graduated from the Pollack Mihály Faculty of the University of Pécs as an Architectural Engineer. During my college years, I spent breaks in California where I learned English and got to know the construction industry there. During these trips, I visited Mexican orphanages several times and saw the beauty of volunteer work.
As a young man, I worked as a volunteer in Mexico in 2008-2009, where I learned Spanish at a conversational level. I spent the first months in Encinada, Tecate, where we helped the elderly with housework and maintained a children's home, then I worked on the construction site of the Life and Hope Orphanage in Magdalena. My task was to lead volunteer teams and supervise children. Here I realized again what a blessing it is to believe in God and where I was born. Organizing and working in desert conditions was also a great professional experience. This year I spent 6 weeks with my Aunt, Viki Fülöp, in Brazil, where I also participated in the expansion of a children's home and spent time with children as a vacation.
I spent the end of 2009 in Cassine, Guinea-Bissau, helping my brother Zalán expand our school. I got married in 2010, and in 2011, my wife and our first daughter and I spent a year in Mexico as volunteers.
Moving back to Hungary with my family, I try to participate in local social work as much as my life situation allows as a father. We cooked food for the homeless, cut hair for years. When the Ukrainian war broke out, we took in refugees and helped them as best we could as a family. Then for 2 years we actively organized and brought donations to those in need in Ukraine.
I was born in 1992 in Orosháza, Békés County. I lived here until the beginning of my university studies, then I moved to Budapest. I graduated as a technical manager with a specialization in business economics from the Faculty of Economics of the Hungarian University of Technology. After completing my studies, I found a job at ALUFE Fémskerkesti Kft., a construction company based in Hungary with a 55-year history. Its main activity is the construction of large-volume, complex aluminum-glass facades, primarily in Germany. Initially, I was in a controller position, and from 2018 I continued my work as the economic manager of the company group.
Since the beginning of the 2020s, in addition to my professional work, I have been working as a volunteer financial manager for several Christian, non-profit organizations. One of these is the 4M Hungary Foundation, which is the Hungarian leg of the 4M movement that started in the Netherlands. The foundation organizes physically and mentally challenging wilderness trips for men (XCC), during which men can meet themselves, their deeply hidden wounds, but also Jesus, who, according to our belief, brings real and lasting change. Recently, the range of events has expanded (Arise – women's program, Father-son, Father-daughter, Married Challenge). From 2022, I will perform financial and administrative tasks at the foundation on a voluntary basis, but from the spring of 2025, I will work here as a part-time employee as a financial manager.
In addition, I support the Christian mission in Guinea-Bissau, primarily in the areas of organization, administration, and finance.
In 2023, my family and I moved from Budapest to Érsekcsanád, a village near Baja. I live there with my wife and three children.
First and foremost, I am the father of 4 girls. I myself grew up in a large, Christian family in Hódmezővásárhely, with ten siblings, which taught me to adapt and cooperate in a community at a very young age. I graduated in 2001 as a carpenter and joiner, in which I worked as an entrepreneur for nearly 15 years, with interruptions due to my trips abroad. In 2005, I traveled for half a year to visit my aunt, who had been serving as a missionary in a children's home and orphanage in the south of Brazil for nearly twenty years. This period was a defining part of my life, especially the way I saw selfless, self-sacrificing lives, living and serving for others. In 2006, I returned to Brazil, and that's when I met Valberto, with whom I later served for years and to this day in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa. In 2008, we returned to Brazil, to the CLM orphanage, with a team of 12. In the same year, I first visited Cacine, Bissau-Guinea, where we began working together with Valberto at the Escola Betel school, and a dream of many years seemed to come true, new classrooms, a library, a dormitory… and many other construction projects began.
I spent a total of more than four years in Cacine, returning several times, and at the same time, I began organizing volunteers and supporters from home, which has now grown into a support team of more than a hundred people. In 2015, my wife and I traveled together, and in 2016 we arrived home with a wonderful gift from God, our first daughter. Since 2017, I have been helping Escola Betel and AAEGB (Guinea-Bissau Schools Friends Association) from home with our ever-expanding team. Since then, we have been strengthening our relationship during one- or two-week trips.
During my weekdays at home, I work as a business manager in a family business, in trade, and I am also an employee of the Providence for the Needy Foundation, where
We try to provide emotional and financial support to families of children with special needs who are in difficult circumstances, and together with the family support organization we try to make the lives of families living in extreme poverty easier. As the president of the BGO foundation (Foundation for Education in Bissau-Guinea), which was registered last year, I am active in organizing our current and future projects.
