Report from the 2 co-workers from India. They are currently visiting the saints in Kathmandu and Maidi. Please continue to pray for them.
To all the saints in the Lord’s Recovery,
The following is a report from 2 Indian co-workers on the situation in Nepal.
Dear brothers,
This morning (May 4) our flight landed on time and we were able to meet a brother
from Seoul at the airport. He had been in Nepal since April 27 and left at the time of
our arrival. We noticed many Christian missionaries, on the same flight with us,
arriving with lots of medical supplies and other materials for Nepal. Their intention is
to spread the gospel.
Brother Bright, a brother serving in Nepal, came to pick us up and was extremely
happy to see us. In the morning he took us to a few places where there were serious
damages. The situation is very gloomy here. Some buildings are still in unstable
conditions. They may fall any time. There are over 3800 foreign rescuers working in
Nepal right now. Indian, Chinese, Korean, American and European Army personnels
are also in the rescue work.
All the saints in Nepal are fine. During the earthquake all the saints were at the
Lord’s Table meeting. They were preserved by the Lord in the meeting hall. Their
meeting place suffered no damage. A sister’s rented house of six stories had
completely collapsed. By the Lord’s mercy the Lord preserved her entire family.
In the evening, we went to the meeting hall to see the brothers who serve in the
translation work. They testified how the Lord’s hand preserved them for the
testimony in Nepal. Kathmandu had 2.6 million people and around 1 million have
fled away from Kathmandu. The streets are not crowded as before and traffic is very
smooth. By 7pm all the stores are closed and there are not many people on the
street.
Tomorrow we will stay in Kathmandu to meet the rest of the saints. We will also buy
food, provisions and water for the saints in Maidi. Early Wednesday morning, we will
drive to Maidi to supply the saints with material things and comfort them in the
Lord.
There are still tremors in Kathmandu. At 4am this morning, there was a 5.6
magnitude quake. In the evening at 5:12pm, we still felt mild tremors.
Water is dirty and there are epidemic disease outbreaks. All the people walk around
with facial mask on their faces.
We both enjoy being with the saints in Nepal. They realized that many saints in the
recovery are praying for them. They were touched by the reality of the Body in such
a real and practical way. They have also renewed their consecration in a fresh way to live to the Lord for His purpose until He returns.
