Hi friend,Training Nationals for Nationals in integrity and skills (Psalm 78:72)

Two of our men were with 51 pastors and leaders in the capital, Kathmandu.  There were good reports from the participants.  We have completed four years with them.  Not only were there the great privilege and joy of teaching them, but also there have been good bonding and fellowship among the teachers and students.  We also learn of the great burden of these leaders for their own.  The Nepalese are the best instruments of God in reaching out and building their own people.  There is hope for Nepal.

A new beginning will be in East Nepal this coming March, 2011.  The call has come for us to train leaders, coming from that area: India and Bhutan.  Please continue to pray for and with us as we will spend March 5-19 in Nepal.  There will be another session in September.  By that time, we would be graduating our first batch with the Master of Ministry degree.  God has been faithful to all of us together, in partnership.

Some 48 participants from over 10 churches had a wonderful and exciting time with our two trainers from USA.  We learn not only from the materials but also from the interactive experience of teaching.  We also desire to see how the good Lord will have us bring such experience to other countries.  Translation work will have to be done.  Please pray for and with us as we await His will and timing.  Please view Facebook:Faith@Works.

We had over 60 leaders.  It never ceases to amaze us to see how the good Lord keeps on bringing these back for training.  We are with them four times annually.  We have just completed one year and will enter into the second year.  We will have 10 sessions of 2 classes each for the Master of Ministry degree.  We will see what the good Lord will have after this first Master degree.  Plans are afoot for the National leaders to begin their Bible College training of their own as we upgrade their lecturers.

As we pray and interest leaders from other lands, there have been calls of help from Tanzania (we will be there March 28 – April 6), Cambodia, Laos, Sri Lanka and Philippines.  Yes, the harvest is truly plenteous and the laborers few.  We are praying to the Lord of Harvest to give us prayer partners, teaching partners, resource partners and financial partners.  Together with the Lord of Harvest, we can invest in God’s Kingdom and in people for which our Lord and Savior had given His all for us and for the whole world.Will you pray and listen to God’s direction in this exciting vision of training Nationals for Nationals?

Thanks so very much for your prayer and partnership.  Without you, we would not be able to be His servants in reaching out to National leaders.  If we can be of help to you and all yours, please let us know.

May the good Lord bless you and all yours!

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which you have shown toward His Name, in that you have ministered to the saints and do minister” (Heb. 6:10).
