Fwd: July 4, 2023

Do you remember what you did on the Fourth of July?  I will never forget what I did on the Fourth in 2023. I didn't celebrate America's independence; rather I had a memorable celebration of the freedom from sin given to us by Jesus. 

Our team got to go 4 hours from Tulisper, Dang into the mountains in Nepal.  I am sure all four of us plus the translator were praying without ceasing as our Jeep did hairpin turns, honking as we approached blind spots and sometimes went quite close to a precipice in order to avoid fallen rocks. 

After passing changing styles of housing, transportation and farming techniques we arrived at the lovely, well lit village church. Later we learned that they had outgrown their original church-Praise God!

Attendance was great and the message of Jesus the Savior of all was well received. After the lesson we all took a lot of pictures and many Nepali asked us to pray with them. 

We were happy to note that our driver, probably Hindu, came in and stayed for the entire lesson.
