Trinity Is Going to Nepal! (in just five days)
This IS true. While only four of us are going physically, we truly are going as representatives of this loving body of believers. When we first started envisioning this trip, Mohan shared his dreams of us coming and our outrageous goal was to put on a teacher training conference, a marriage conference, and buy three computers for the local high school. We dreamed of raising the $4300 that it would cost to do these three projects. There has been an outpouring of support through Nepal Night and in response to letters we’ve sent to family and friends. To date $11,131.21 has been raised/donated for this trip! $3700 of that will help defray the cost of the plane tickets. The additional funds will go for some projects that Mohan has needed. One of these is a solar lighting system for their training center in Pokhara. That may be installed as soon as this week. They typically only have about 3 hours of electricity per day there. Another need that these funds may be meeting is the replacement of city water pipes that were destroyed in a recent landslide. But somehow, we believe that our presence there in Nepal is going to matter more than “projects” accomplished. Please pray for us that we would have the sensitivity to be Jesus’ loving hands to whomever we meet there.
