Nepal’s anti-conversion law restricts religious conversion and the free expression of faith in Nepal. Many believers have been arrested, some imprisoned. Against a backdrop of political, social and spiritual challenges, BMS World Mission workers and partners continue to point to the one who can bring about total transformation.
SUNDAY 17
In light of the anti-conversion law, please pray for wisdom and protection in these challenging times. Pray that believers would continue to be light in the darkness and know how to respond to the increased restriction.
MONDAY 18
BMS partner KISC EQUIP trains Nepali teachers across the country. Pray that EQUIP’s support will improve the academic and emotional needs of the children and the communities in which EQUIP serves.
TUESDAY 19
BMS worker Toby Vokuhl continues PhD research about the interconnection of reconstructed housing in post-disaster areas and building occupant wellbeing. Pray for the successful completion of the research, and protection for Pippa and the children while he is travelling for fieldwork.
WEDNESDAY 20
