Jason
and I came to Nepal on May 1st 1998. This year marked
our 8th year of ministry in the Himalayan nation. Years
before, I was serving with Operation Mobilization (OM)
for about six years in various countries including Nepal.
After my first visit to this beautiful nation, Nepal has
always been in my heart since. After I met Jason, we went
to WEC Missionary Training College (now known as Worldview
College) in Tasmania, Australia.
We
spent three years there preparing ourselves for a long
term missionary calling.
I
have a heart for children. This desire came through helping
in an orphanage back in 1989 when I was with OM in Kathmandu,
the capital city of Nepal. This desire resurfaced after
we moved to Nepal to serve the Lord in 1998. With the
help of a few good and long-time friends, I started a
small home for eight boys in 2000. It was a great learning
process for me how to be a mom to these disadvantaged
kids and also to trust Him for all our resources. Then
the Lord decided to fling open the door wide for the ministry.
Last year, I decided to put on my socks and shoes properly
and walked fearfully before His door of opportunity. After
much prayer and soul searching, I accepted Robert's offer
and took up the challenge to operate a bigger orphanage
home. I am now seconded by Centre of New Life, my home
church to serve with OHF. It is time to get beyond the
boundaries of my own backyard and reach out to underprivileged
children with the immeasurable love of Christ.
