A LIFE touched



The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. Isaiah 61:1

The electricity was off so it was even darker than normal as Michael walked me down the dirt road to my hotel. A drunken man wobbled ahead of us and tumbled over in the middle of the street.  A car swerved by. Michael and I knew we could not leave him to be hit by a car. Carefully, Michael helped the elderly man up. He could barely walk. Speaking in Nepali, Krishna, told Michael he was trying to get to a Hindu temple down the street where he could sleep. He had no home and no family as his wife passed away nine years ago. As we talked to Krishna, we found that he was not as drunk as we thought, but rather, his knees were injured so he could not walk. When we arrived at the temple, Michael shared the gospel and we prayed in Jesus Name for Krishna’s knees to be healed. After our prayer, Michael asked Krishna to walk around and see how he felt. To his surprise and ours, Krishna walked and walked and proclaimed that he was healed! Michael gave Krishna his phone number and a gospel track. The next day he called Michael and was still excited about how Jesus had healed his knees. He wanted to meet again. Krishna has now been coming to church. He is one of thousands who live on the streets of Kathmandu. Many have never even heard the name of Jesus. Michael and I feel called to evangelize and disciple all the Lord brings our way.

 
Please pray the Lord sends us out into His harvest field. The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. May we be worthy of this holy calling to live out the love of Christ.

Rudra, our new brother in Christ! It was my first time to Africa.   I was excited to see what God had for us. Before our journey began, we met a Nepali man --> at the airport who was going to Qatar for work.  He looked very normal and gentle-spirited. We began to talk. He was very surprised and happy to find out that my wife was a foreigner. Our conversation went deep and we opened our hearts and thoughts about faith. I shared God’s love and after nearly 45 minutes I asked him, if he’d like to invite Jesus into his life. And he said YES! The story doesn't stop here.   God was taking us on a journey to release His presence and share His goodness in different places from the… Border of Uganda and Congo… Worship before evangelism Praying with this Muslim lady to accept Jesus. Passionate evangelist who interpreted for us as we did door-to-door evangelism. Blessed by this pastor! Surrounded by banana trees and smiling children we gath...
