NEPAL: URGENT NEED!

Here are some news from our orphanage in Nepal. The children and the staff are doing fine. They are sleeping outside, under a tent since Saturday. Due to many tremors, it is not safe to sleep inside the building yet.

Our staff and Pastors with their members started to help the victims, rescuing some people from collapsed buildings and bringing the children who lost their families, feeding them and taking care of them.

As soon as we have new photos from our mission work in Nepal, we will put them in our website.

We thank you for your financial help and prayers.

MASSIVE EARTHQUAKE IN NEPAL – URGENT NEED

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck an area of central Nepal between Kathmandu and the city of Pokhara early on Saturday 25th of April. According to international news, over 5,000 people are confirmed dead but the death toll continues to rise everyday.

God led us to the nation of Nepal in 2009 with a vision to share God’s love and His care for the people of Nepal. We have started 3 churches and a children’s home. The work has grown so far. It is sad to hear about the massive earthquake that hit Nepal Saturday. It brought lots of damage. Many buildings and homes were destroyed. Hundreds of people are homeless and sleeping in the streets in cardboard boxes, without proper food and clean water. We praise God, our children’s home nearby Kathmandu was not seriously damaged: the compound wall and the toilets collapsed. The children and the staff are safe.

We started to help and provide food, clean water and blankets to the victims. Our children’s home staff and EWM Pastors are on the site, helping and rescuing people who are trapped under collapsed buildings. We will continue to keep you posted on any future developments through our website: www.eternalwordministries.org

We need your urgent prayers and financial support. Please make your gift payable to Eternal Word Ministries and send it to EWM bank account in your country. You can also make a donation through Paypal.

This all show that we are living in the end time. Jesus is coming very soon. We have to speed up the work of God more than ever before, to show God’s love and His care for the people of the world. For this reason, Jesus came and paid a great price by sharing His precious blood on the cross of Calvary. Through His death and resurrection, we have eternal life.
