Nepal
Nepal is a small country nestled between China to the North and India to the South. The Great Himalaya Range towers along the northern border; Nepal is home to the highest mountain in the world. It is a very beautiful country, but because of political instability, it is one of the poorest countries on earth. The major religion is Hinduism, but small percentages of the population are Buddhist and Muslim. Its culture is one of the oldest on earth with organized societies dating back 1500 years. The Nepalese are a very gentle people. Since their culture is family oriented and they have a high regard for children, orphanages are respected and can open the door for further ministry in the community.
Bhaktapur Children's Home
Bhaktapur Children's home began in the heart of David Sagar in 2001 when orphaned children were brought to his church for care. Shortly after those first four children arrived, David partnered with us. With resources available from people like you, David has now been able to rescue fourteen children from the streets of Nepal . Many of these children come from single parent homes, and their families are too poor to care for them or give them an education. Some of the children are true orphans with no families to look after them. They are often times found in trash piles, scavenging for food. At Bhaktapur Children's Home, not only do they receive material care such as food and clothes, they also receive the care of a mother or father. They are able to receive a quality education to give them an opportunity for a better life. Most of the children end up becoming Christian and following God towards a life of ministry to their country.
Your monthly contributions of $75 will feed, house, clothe, and educate a child. As parents, you know that the care of a child is an eighteen year commitment, however we only ask for a commitment of one year. In return, you will receive a quarterly letter from the child you are sponsoring and a monthly report from David on how your child is progressing in school and life. You will also receive a profile of your child with their story and picture. Please display this profile where it will be a daily reminder to pray for him or her.
