Well here we go again. Round two. Headed back to Nepal and adding a new adventure of India as well. Taking a team of 7. Leading with Danny White. We have 5 students from all over the world, from the ages of 18 to 26. So here is the team....
So back to Nepal for the whole month of July. While we are in Nepal we will be working with Iris Ministries, founded by Heidi and Roland Baker. We will be working with orphans in a children's home that Iris works with. Also, working in Leper Colonies showing them the love of Jesus and the cleansing power that He has for them, slum ministry by bringing food and clothes and showing them the love of Jesus. Another thing that we clearly feel The Lord saying is to go into the unreached places and spread the good news, so we are acting on that by going into the villages that have never heard the name of Jesus and sharing who he is and his goodness and after spreading that showing the village how to love God and love others while still being fully involved in their cultures, living life for the lord in the daily and how they can properly do that and maintain relationship with them even after we leave. My heart comes alive for this part of the world and what the Lord is doing and wants to do in the Himalayas. I can't wait to be back in Nepal and reconnect with all the relationships that I had made when I was there the last time. To really be able to live out the call that he has placed "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit". Matthew 28:19
Then we will be heading to India for the month of August and there we will be working with Tibetan and Nepali Refugees and helping restore their families and homes and setting them up for success. Also, we will be working in a backpackers ministry. We will be in Darjeeling, India which is at the Northeast Corner of India and is a very large backpacking tourist spot and a big reason we feel to work with that ministry is because if they understand the love and grace of God while they are on a backpacking trip then when they go home and show others in their hometowns the love of Christ. Also, we will be working in slums and in children's home. Leading bible studies and English classes. I am very excited to see what the Lord has in that part of the world for us and the inheritance that we will be getting in that place. I have never been there but that area of the world holds a very beautiful and big place in my heart. In Psalms 2:8 the Lord says, "Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, and the ends of the earth your possession". I have asked the Lord for this land and feel a large call to go and see the Himalaya's changed. I could not be more excited to leave.
I leave June 29 for 10 weeks to see the Lord move in these places and be the hands and feet of Jesus and see Jesus get the glory in all of it. My deepest desire for my life and this trip is for Jesus to get the reward for His suffering. I believe the Lord is moving and will do big things and I could not be more excited and ready to go.
"And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news". Romans 10:15
