Trinity Is Going to Nepal! (in just two week)
The four of us going as Trinity’s representatives to Nepal are getting very excited as the trip approaches. We will be departing Friday, October 1, flying to San Francisco and then a nineteen-hour flight to Singapore where we will rest before flying on to Kathmandu, Nepal. The following day we will go in a van to Pokhara, which is only about 120 miles away but is a five-hour drive! Memory and Mark Lamfers will be starting the teacher training conference the very next day in Pokhara. Mohan is estimating that about 15 teachers from the local public schools will attend this three-day conference. Probably none of these teachers are Christians, so please pray that our training will not only be enriching for these teachers but also sensitive to the religious and cultural differences. The three-day marriage conference will start the next day. Tom Olschner and Memory Lamfers will be presenting to between 30 and 50 of the Frontier Mission (Youth With a Mission) staff members from all over Nepal. Please pray that we will be good listeners to their experience of marriage so that we might facilitate a time of marriage enrichment for these staff doing church planting work. Also please pray for Bill Wilkin and Mark Lamfers as they work with the children of the YWAM staff those three days. Then we will have about another week left in Pokhara. We plan to spend time with the kids in the orphanage, perhaps visit one or two of the church planting teams, and try to listen to how God might want Trinity to continue to partner with this ministry in Nepal. We’ll be touching back down at DIA on Saturday, October 23. Thank you for your partnership in this! Stay tuned for how you can stay in touch with what we’re doing during the trip.
