Reaching a Nepalese Family


Last summer, Lacey, one of our team members on the Salem Oaks team got connected with a Hindu Nepali woman named Srijana. Through Srijana she met this woman’s extended family and has been ministering to and loving on that family since then. Yesterday (1/16) Julia and Lacey were at Srijana’s home and through the Lord’s leading Lacey shared the creation to Christ gospel story. She said, “Yes, I believe that is true.” But was unable to talk in depth because of other family visiting from Cypress coming in and out of the apartment.

Recently, Chris got connected with Mr. Om during the mornings at the bus stop. It wasn’t until yesterday that we realized Om was the same Om that Lacey knew through Srijana(her father-in-law). In total Om has 4 sons and 4 daughters. Almost all are married with children.

Today (1/17), Chris, Julia, their children, and Lacey were at Om’s for breakfast and lunch, they met his son, Kishor, and had an in-depth conversation about his beliefs and about Jesus. Kishor was open to discussing different religions but he was not ready to accept Christ as the only way.

We know God wants this family as he is pursing them through different people.
Please pray in faith with us the impossible prayer of this whole family coming to know Christ as their only God and King!

Some of his children’s names you can be praying for:

Kishor & Sabitra
Nemal & Srijana
Prabitra
Sita
Santi
