Today we visited an orphanage, near to the location of the Pastor’s Conference. It is run buy the brother-in-law and sister of Pastor Baburam, one of the HMU leaders in Nepal. I just cannot describe how wonderful and precious these children are! I have included a photo of the group, with me and my friend Ed in the back, and another pic of 2 of the girls.

Then tonight we had dinner with the National Director of Campus Crusade for Christ, Nepal. It was a time of stimulating conversation, as we are gathering information about what it takes to establish or run and organization (orphanage??) in Nepal.

Thanks for the prayers!

Here are some shots of me with some pastors and Bible School students  from yesterday at the conclusion of the conference. What a fantastic time, what a privilege!

 

FINALLY I got the wifi to cooperate here in the hills above Kathmandu, at the Hotel View Bhirkuti. It is the area where we have had the conference in years past, a beautiful, peaceful district outside of Kathmandu. The actual Pastor’s Conference is literally across the street at a conference center run by the Catholic Church. I believe we met there in 2013.

Anyway, there about 50 in attendance, many of them again coming from remote mountain villages. These guys are full of joy and are so glad to come here each year. I had the mornings first session, and I will tomorrow as well. I think it went well today, with a good translator working with me.

An added bonus this year is that there are 11 students from the newly-established Harvest Bible College in attendance. They are all young, and have been leading the music at the beginning of each session. It is really a joy to have them here with us.

Tomorrow (Friday) we will end in the late afternoon, then I am off to Kathmandu for a few days. But for now, I am so glad to be here and to participate with these dear brothers. I wish you all could be here to experience it.

Thanks for the prayers. All is well. Pictures tomorrow.
