Nepal. What a discovery.

Our time in Nepal was moderately long, but jam packed with things to do. We met amazing people, spent time in amazing places and experienced the culture first hand in many different situations.

Where to start? Maybe in the Himalayas where we spent a week moving "mountains" of rocks for our Sherpa friends who will be building a church later. 

From being crammed up against each other (and others) in public busses fit to seat 20 people comfortably, but with a max fitting of up to 40 people, to walking from early morning,visiting churches, till the evening, God met us continually.

Some challenges rose and we had some bad luck when our leader fell sick suddenly and with that two team members lost their phones. But all in all We had an unforgettable time in Nepal. The people, the culture and the harvest is rich and great! 

We witnessed 4 baptisms whilst in the mountains of Nepal and it opened our eyes to so much more. To how worshiping God isn't always easy. Some Sherpa friends walked five hours to be able to attend the weekly devotion, and then had to sleep over for a night before heading back.

Whilst we were walking in the streets in Katmandu visiting different churches we began to realize what it must have been like for the apostles back in the day.

To live is Christ! We spent almost two weeks living this. Living not for ourselves, sleep or even meals anymore. Rather living for the people we met everyday, praying, singing, preaching, testifying every day. 

This is the reason we signed up for a global year. To surrender a whole year to be able to live Christ to everyone we encounter.

We thank you Nepal for helping us realize what our year was about.
