Christians In Crisis

Nepal - Dear brothers and sisters: My pleasure to drop few things about hop in Nepal, is all about obeying a faithful call, despite oppositions from the enemy, by his grace, hop in Nepal have been meeting at different part of the cities, on a small groups, of 10 to 20 people average on weekly bases, depending on the center, Some of us are relocating our venue weekly depending on willing home ready to host us for the week, while some have a permanents venue/ Our main goal is to raise prayers and intercedes on these four areas of need here in Nepal:

(1) Prayer for the persecuted churches and Christians that are in crisis.
(2) Intercession for the nation "Nepal',
(3) Pray for the body of Christ in Nepal
(4) Pray for our individual needs.

As we as an individual are different in making, so are the HOP Nepal, none could be said to be they same, Some are hosted and composed of orphan's kids, some are groups of, women, some are a group of churches meeting on agreed venue, Some meetings are totally prayer and nothing more, while some we have 15 minutes to share the word of God, while some we have a teaching series, above all we meet to glorifies our lord and savoir Jesus Christ,

Sometime it become quite difficulties to some of these group, in the case where participants comes from different churches, you have to be careful not to step beyond doctrine line another not to hurt individual churches believes and doctrines. Or you many find yourself in a group that some haven't been to church for their entire life, whenever we starts, as many that God brings on a ways are allowed to be part of the hop Nepal,
We do encounter many problems too, take the cases of some hop kids, parents do raise up against us for teaching their kid about Christ.

Example a kid of 12 years old, after encountering Christ, spreads the messages of Christ among friends and mate in the school, in one occasion where that are praying the whole room was filled with smokes, some of the kids fell asleep. The following day all the parents in the neighborhood send their warning to 12 years kids parents not to allow their child to be teaching their children about Christ.

Some of you most have read of another kids group that had an encounter Christ, God have touch people in different way in our meetings, healing all kind and vision, audible voice etc. This testimony didn't happen without some sad stories, in one occasion a group of five kids, among us went on their own to get themselves baptized in a river, since they couldn't convince their parents to be a Christians, when the story licks the heats turns to us, especially myself, been a foreigners, where activities such this till carry six years imprisonment.

Weakness of our groups:

Some of our hop groups waits till my arrival for them to start meeting, in the most case may all go home without praying, if I felt to turn up, which
am seriously addressing on these days.

Secondly we are separated apart, and great number of our members did not have internet access or literates enough to communicates in English, become another difficult thing to access prayer points and well distributes them, as i have to find someone that have to translates some of the prayer points for them to read in the local language Nepalese.

Thirdly most of our meting do takes place at odd hours, some I have to sleep in a floor to be able to attends their meeting, some I have to treks up to 45 minutes to an hour to reach home as I do take place in the night when all the members most have been back from their respective job and activities of the day And this affects my health too.

Measure taken:

(1) Reduced as many meetings as possible for now, to regain my health,
(2) Kids most get parents permission before be allowed into hop
(3) Trains the member to be able to meet their needs, even if am not around, by starting a training programs called "school of workers SOW" so that they should be able to trains other too,
(4) Participates and not take charge, it means I can only get involved occasionally
(5) Mobilized other intercessor in Nepal with vision of CIC and hop

Hindrance:

There are communicating gap between them and myself, I could only get to know what is happen only when on the meetings date in case i fell to turn up no new is communicates across, some of them have no access to telephone or computer, (including myself)

Transporting myself, to those venues is becoming another hindrance, as I have to change three to four vehicles to reach some meetings, taxi would be great but cost a lot,

One of the orphanages home had relocated to another tourist area in Nepal, where I have to pay some certain amount of fee to be able to visits them since the whole area is among world heritage site of unseco.
