Nepal Missions - $18,000 Team Budget Breakdown
"The purpose of our team's missions trip is to provide support to the local coworkers that we have partnered with for the past four years (since 2013). In going to Nepal, we hope to love on and share the hope of Jesus Christ with the Nepali people. We will do this through home visitations and teaching English, Chinese, guitar, etc. We focus on three locations: Kathmandu ( the capital), Sankhu (Hindu village near the earthquake epicenter), and Lumbini 8 hours South from KTM & the birthplace of Buddha). The purpose of these short-term missions trips that we have been able to sustain over the years is to build up long-term investment in communities (whether it be through fostering a missional heart in team members) or forming lasting relationships with those in the field, so that the ministry can continue to grow."
