Nepal Outreach week 6

Week 6 blog Nepal

11/24- Monday-
Good morning Nepal! We got ready and headed out with our translator to do some evangelism around a pond that is a popular area. Before this though we had the pleasure of meeting a pastor who is leading a church planting ministry around the Kathmandu valley areas. We then headed to the pond since it was near the church planting base with our new friend who were pastors in training. There we were all able to speak with multiple people and share the Gospel with them. As one of the students asked a elderly lady if she had known who Jesus, an she replied she didn't know who he was but by the end of the convo she wanted to ask this Jesus into her heart!! Such a great time of encouraging believers and being able to share about this love God ha given us. We then headed to large park and we did open air dramas for students in the park . A we were doing these dramas there was a woman selling oranges an peanuts and come to find out she was a Christian also. This time was so great for us as we met this peanut sales lady who passed out tracts as she sold peanuts!! While we did dramas she handed a man a tract an then he began to ask us about this Jesus who was written about in the tract the lady had handed him. Her testimony was literally borderline impossible, but as we know there is nothing to big or impossible for our God! She told us about how she was not able to read because she never went to school but after she accepted Jesus in her heart she could read the bible! Yes, I know read that again and just tell God how good He is!!! What a great day. We then ended as you would all great days, with intercession.

11/25- Tuesday
Today was quite an experience. Most of the team was battling illness and so because of this only 3 people went for ministry. We went to the pastors house who is leading the school for church planters that we visited on Monday. His family was so nice they invited us in for tea and gave us tons of bibles in Nepali and English. Today was more of a perpetration day due to the fact there is a national seminar going on where multiple prime ministers were meeting here in Kathmandu. So because of this South Asia conference everything was shut down for this half of the week.

11/26-Wednesday
The morning started with intercession, and then went to our translators college to pray over it. While doing this we met a guy we gave bible after sharing the gospel with him. We also ran into a guy who told us he was a new christian and so we wanted him plugged into a local church so we invited him to church we were helping at this last week.

11/27- Thursday
We went to Buddhist temple and tons of monkeys everywhere to prayer walk. Then after that we went and prayed for our translators dad and for a house church that was also an orphanage. The pastors mom we had previously prayed for was there waiting for us to pray. It was such a powerful sight just to see how much their understanding of the power of prayer is was just incredible. The team is still battling illness but God is still using us and preparing us for upcoming times of ministry.

11/28- Friday
We started the morning with a great time of intercession and encouragement then switched housing so now the group from kings kids ministry is coming switch with us at the street evangelism base. This day was filled with packing and getting all our stuff together and then unloading again at the kings kids house we are now staying at. We had a time of orientation so we knew what to prepare for this week. Somewhat relaxed day just moved from ministry site to the next but still a great day!

11/29- Saturday
We had found out that today at church we would be leading a "Saturday school" time for the kids, but during this time we had to teach them a Christmas play so we went with a classic the play of Jesus' birth. Later we gave a testimony during the youth group and then headed home because 2/5ths of our team were sick. It was an awesome church service though, and very nice to see because mainly the youth lead worship so it's very contemporary songs and somewhat reminds us of our home churches.

11/30- Sunday
Once again was our free day so the whole group headed to the tourist area named Tamil and had lunch there. Some then went back home while others continued to shop and we met back up that night and ate dinner as a team. The hospitality at Kings kids is beyond awesome our host is the sweetest lady and 2 younger boys. Thank you everyone for your prayers and support. Make sure and keep up with what's going on only 2 full weeks left to hear about what God is doing in Nepal!
