New Things






OK so Nepal is now a republic and the king has about 10 days to leave his palace. That took place when i was in polkera. Nepal is in the middle of a big political shift, we the church have been praying a lot for the country. The mouists are in power due to corruption at the polls. They are communist, not to happy about that, neither is india whitch is causing the fuel shortage. though thats kinda old news. The days are so HOT. Polkera was awsome spent a lot of time alone hiking and enjoying the view. BIG NEWS me and some of the boys started a new ministry,
well kinda. Old ministry for the church new ministry for us I'm going with 5 of the former street boys (oldest being 23 same age as me the others are in high school) now living at the church out into the street so minister to street boys. all the boys from the chuch speek good english though none of the boys from the street do just nepali. but we went out and found a group of about 4 who didnt want to talk to us then we found another group of about 6 who one of the bays new from when he lived on the street so we talked to them and visited for about and hour or so i couldnt really speak to them that well but one of the street boys started teachig me some nepali st that was cool. anyway it was an absolutly amazing night last night were going back tonight so i'm super excited.
Oh so i got to spend some time with David Ruse. Most of you have probably sung some of his songs at chuch, he flew in from LA for a few days. His leg started so swell a LOT so he was in the hospital for a few days, I got to spend a good chunk of time visiting him in the hospital whitch was pretty cool. The doctors said he almost certinly had a blood clot that caused the swelling but the gave him some meds and the swelling went down then the did ultra sound to find the blood clot and the couldnt find one. The doctors were very suprised they couldnt find a blood clot but and so he's out of the hospital and onto india.
