Bringing Light and Life to Nepal

| May 2, 2015 | no comments

Pastor Mina’s story affirms a number of biblical truths. First, the Lord still blesses obedient servants who respond do the will of God regardless of their gender. Second, the Lord still knows the best person to send to a specific field of ministry; Pastor Mina went to an area that men could not safely go to. Third, the Lord still confirms the gospel with signs following (Mark 16:20; Heb 2:3–4). Pastor Mina’s story is one example of what God can do with a life that is yielded to the Lord.

Currently Pastor Mina pastors Grace Church in Makawanpur, Hetunda, Nepal; she also oversees three other churches. She and her staff have a burden to help the street children and orphans of Nepal. They desire to build orphanages in order to house, feed, and care for the children who live on the streets, many of whom get involved in drugs. Their mission is to minister to the physical and spiritual needs of the people of Nepal, men, women, and children. The work that they are doing is but one example of what truly biblical ministry looks like, caring for the whole person. May the example of Pastor Mina and her family inspire and encourage women and men to fulfill the destiny and call God has placed on their lives.

 

For more information on Pastor Mina and her work write: missionnepal@gmail.com. This article was written with the help of Pastor Mina’s son, Nick, who translated her responses to the questions that I asked.

This interview was published in Vista Magazine and the November-December 2010 issue of the Pneuma Informer.

 

May 2015 update: Some of the miracles mentioned in the interview were included in Craig Keener’s book Miracles: The Credibility of the New Testament Accounts. She is now staying in the USA and was not involved in the recent earthquake.
