Continued from last blog...
Sorry for the long delay, having problems with wifi and electricity here in Kathmandu.
The journey to Lapu was very encouraging. We met many Christians on the 6 hour trek into the Gorkha mountains and are stay in BBG's village was short but profitable. We met with an elder of the village the most respected man there, he welcomed us and the message of the Gospel, although he didn't receive Christ he did encourage us to tell our message to the village. He also told us that in some villages Christians are rejected and ostracized from the community, he would not allow that to happen in Lapu. Please continue with us in prayer on how we can help the small number of Christians in Lapu. They told us they sometimes meet in houses but have know one to teach them, they also don't know truth from false teaching. We met about 10 or 12 Christians but we were told there are about 25 altogether. The verse (Zechariah 4:10) The Lord does not despise small beginnings continues to be the verse driving this mission trip.
Irma Bev and Lauren had two very blessed programs, the girls from the girls home loved every minute of there visit. I think they will be praying they return again and again. the conference in Kathmandu was full of great teaching and lots of fun and laughter too! Everyone is hoping we come back every year to do a women's conference.
We leave for Doha tomorrow for a 8 hour layover and arrive in Washington D.C. on the 21st at 3:40pm.
See you soon!
Grace & Peace
