It has been an exciting first half of this year, 2016! The team in Nepal continues to grow and so does the ministry. This picture just came in to me from Padam in Nepal. We have constructed three new churches since February, we are hoping to do two more this year, if possible. Here’s a short report from Padam: This is new church in Tarachowk in lamjung. We have been ministering in these areas for last 5 years..especially..in Luddi and Tarachowk areas. A brother Dil Bahadur is our pastor in Taracowk. He has been with us since last 5 years. [...]

In March of this year, We reopened our training center in Kathmandu Nepal. Pictured above are the men we currently have studying with us at the center. They will be at the center 7 days a week, 24 hours a day for three months. They are taught and study the Word 9 to 10 hours a day, with Saturdays off (Church day!) This will go on for a full three months until we send them back up into the Lamjung and Gorkha Districts (about 125-140 miles North West) where they will go with one of our pastors up there to have [...]

The following video is our last from the field. It has been an absolute extraordinary trip into north west Nepal, only 10 or 12 miles from China. In 5 days of medical outreach, the team treated over 2000 patients, referred many to hospitals where specialty care could be given, hundreds of Ultra Sounds, many were prayed for/with and much much more. A huge thank you from all the team. We were certainly covered with God’s mercy and grace, especially during the tiomes we had to fly in country and trek from village to village. The video here is a tad [...]

The team is doing great. They saw about 400 patients yesterday. Today they will see about 300. People are walking for 3-4 days to get there. Many people are being helped by our medical team. Some are being brought in on stretchers and there are some really sick people too. They are also coming from the next district over (Jumla). There is minimal to no health care in this area. The team wanted to send some video/photos but they are down in the valley and it's very difficult to get a signal. There are so many people wanting to be [...]

Hello All Just a quick update- It is 1:30 pm Monday here in the city of Nepalganj Nepal. We got this far this morning. We left Kathmandu on the way to Mugu Nepal, stopping here to change planes. However, over night Talcha Airport in Gamgadhi Mugu received 5 inches of snow, so they cancelled all flights. We have a pretty nice hotel here and we plan on catching the first flight we can tomorrow, Tuesday, from Nepalganj to the airport in Mugu district of Nepal. All is good, we are a bit antsy to get up there and get to [...]
