Nepal
Tucked in the Himalayas between India and China, Nepal remained closed to Christian missionaries until 1951. Since then, Christianity in Nepal has grown quietly amid rising Hindu nationalism and strict anti-conversion laws. Nepali Christians often face social rejection, discrimination, and even imprisonment for sharing their faith. Yet the church in Nepal continues to grow, and the gospel spreads through the courage and resilience of believers despite religious persecution.

Leadership Development
To see the Nepali church grow in health and endurance, we are equipping and training future pastors and ministry leaders through a regional seminary that we partner with. Through live online courses offered, Nepali leaders are studying Scripture, engaging in discussion, and deepening their understanding of the gospel. Aspiring and current leaders participate in accredited online classes that strengthen their theological foundations and prepare them for faithful pastoral ministry. Through these efforts, a new generation of leaders is being raised up to build up the church in Nepal with wisdom and courage.
HOW TO PRAY FOR
Nepal

For bold and faithful witnesses.
Pray for Nepali Christians to have deep love for the gospel and compassion for their neighbors. Ask God to give them wisdom, creativity, and courage to share Christ with grace, even when it is costly.
For pastors and leaders to be equipped.
Pray for pastors and church leaders to be grounded in Scripture and equipped for discipleship and ministry. Ask God to grow a church in Nepal that loves his Word and leads others to know and follow him.
