Incomparably great power for us who BELIEVE


We had the privilege of stopping in Israel on our way back to Nepal. Here we are at the Garden tomb.

I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 
Ephesians 1:17-21

As I have been reading and meditating on this Scripture I still cannot grasp the fullness of it, but my prayer for you and for me is that God will enlighten our hearts to know the HOPE-->the amazing inheritance He has in store for us and His awesome POWER--> the same power that was exerted when he raised Jesus from the dead. Let us believe for this!

Shiyrah was a great traveler. We stopped in Israel. Here we are at the Dome of the Rock where the temple
was built and the new temple will be built someday.

What's going on in Nepal


We are very happy to be back in Nepal. It has been great to catch up with friends and family. We have been very busy trying to get our visa's sorted out, but praise the Lord, Shiyrah and Holly just got 1 year visa's yesterday and Michael will hopefully have his visa by tomorrow. 

We have also been busy with guests at our guest house. We have been looking for a new house to live in as we gave our house up when we went to America. Today we will have a Light 2 the World General Assembly to meet with L2W staff and board members. Michael has already begun planning worship events and workshops for later this month and next month. Please also pray for our health as we were all sick this past week.

Nepal's government made a new law that criminalizes conversion and evangelism. So we will have to be more careful what we share on social media. Please pray for Nepal's government and church. Pray for wisdom and boldness to know how to be light and love. Here is an article from Christianity Today sharing the details: Nepal Criminalizes Christian Conversion and Evangelism

Michael's Grandma passed away. She had been sick for
many years now. We are rejoicing that she is in a
wonderfully glorious place now.

Grandpa who just lost his wife.

We have been working on our visa process (it took about 10 days)
and had to drive 5 hours to Michael's village to work at the local
government office. Visiting family while we were there.

Himalaya Grace Home is in need of financial help. Pastor Lila and his wife, Rina run this home. They stepped out in faith and are believing God to provide the needs for their children. Would you be interested in partially supporting any children from his home for $30, or fully sponsoring one for $90 a month? As of now Yakub (-->) has no monthly support.

Prayer 
  • Praise for receiving one year visa's to live in Nepal easily!
  • Fruitful lives.
  • Transitioning back into ministry. 
  • Pray that our guest house will have business. Dwelling Place Guest House
  • Find housing (we think we found a house!) we had to give up our house rent while in America so we have been searching for a new place to live.

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...
