Here in Nepal, church services are held on Saturday instead of Sunday. This morning, we were graciously welcomed by Pastor Bhitrokoti and his congregation. We learned some wonderful new Nepali hymns, as well as some with rather familiar melodies (How Great Thou Art & Give Thanks). We gave the gathered group a recap of all the traveling and teaching we have done so far, and even sang a few of our own familiar English hymns as a choir for them in return.
Pastor Sam Rodebaugh and Pastor Todd Ohlmann preached today while Raju translated, and Dwight gave a brief overview of all the lessons we have been teaching: Jesus is True God, Jesus is True Man, Jesus is our Savior, and Jesus is for everyone.
After the service concluded, we were blessed with the opportunity to mingle with the members and share in the common gratitude of being joined together here in fellowship. How great our God is indeed!
Danyabad Jesu! (Thank you Jesus!)
