South Asian Church Launch, North Carolina

It was an exciting stateside South Asian mission trip to the North Carolina Triad area. Six volunteers were involved in the strategic planning for a new church plant called: Life Nepali Church

After nine years of diligent prayers, Pastor Bishu Subba and his family were approved in May to relocate to the United States from Bhutan. Pastor Subba, his wife Sarah and their two children, Asher, and Zeke, currently reside in High Point, North Carolina.

During the week, partner relationships were built with the staff from Life Community Church, Refuge Sports and Life Nepali Pastor, Bishu Subba. Life Community Church is the host church and will provide the meeting space for all LIFE Nepali services. Additional activities included community prayer walks, tours of the chuch campus and critical partner planning sessions. Upcoming Outreach events include a concert by a South Asian musical artist and several soccer tournaments/clinics to generate community interest in the Life Nepali Church.

Most importantly, many seeds were planted in the hearts and minds of South Asians in the Triad area. We pray that God will continue to bless the work done and use it for His glory and to spread the Good News among these people.
