Work has begun on the house of worship for the church at Dharmashala in the Mid-West district of Rolpa. Brother Megh, Climbing For Christ’s kingdom worker in Nepal, said the church will be built in a month and then worship will be held there.

“All the leaders arrived at the spot (where the church will be constructed) and prayed and I talked with all of them,” said Megh, who visited Rolpa with his wife.

Rocks have been collected and broken, bricks have been made, and doors and windows were being prepared. Work was delayed by elections in November. The church welcomed a new family in November, and now counts up to 75 believers. Korchabang, the first generation church in Rolpa, which planted the church at Dharmashala, recently welcomed two new families.

Megh went to Rolpa after New Year’s to gain permission at the district headquarters for the construction of the building. Permission was granted.

We continue to pray for the church at Dharmashala and that the LORD’s will be done there.
