Good News in Nepal

GFA leaders gave impacting messages to young people in Nepal.

Despite growing unrest in Nepal, Gospel for Asia missionaries in the country are experiencing God's blessing on their efforts to encourage the Body of Christ.

"For a long time, GFA Radio listeners were asking for a chance to meet the radio speakers face to face," wrote GFA's correspondent.

The listeners had this opportunity during the first GFA Radio rally ever held in one area of Nepal. Several congregations and a youth group led by a GFA-supported missionary put the rally together. Hundreds gathered to hear from GFA's Nepal leader, Narayan. The rally was also aired over a radio station.

Soon after, a church led by a GFA-supported pastor raised money to record three new Nepali worship CDs. These CDs were released during a church service and are available in Nepal to help bring people closer to the Lord.

In another area, 200 young people gathered for a three-day youth conference.

"The speakers focused on present-day issues and taught directly from God's Word," the correspondent wrote. "It was clear that the participants were hungry for the Word of God."

GFA workers are encouraged to see the eagerness for teaching and encouragement. The response gives them motivation to continue even when uncertainties lie ahead.

Please pray that the Lord will bless their efforts and that many more people will come closer to Him.
