Yearly Report of Pastor Solomon and Sangita Lepcha, Nepal

 

I want to thank God for His grace and protection to my family during 2005.  I’m grateful for your valuable prayer support that enabled my family to move forward in Christ.  Thank you!

 

It has been a year since Sangita and I got married.  After marriage my family life was a huge blessing full of happiness.  On August 10, 2005 God gave us a beautiful son but he stayed with us for only 14 days.  During that critical time God taught us to trust in Him.  Sangita is still weak but she is recovering slowly.  I encourage her every day.  As you all know, it is very hard for a mother to lose her baby.  In spite of all this we understand that all things work together for good to those who love God. I hope God will give us His best in coming days.

 

This year my personal experience with God was excellent.  He taught me to be strong and trust Him even though our first child died.  Some time I feel frustrated and discouraged, but God encourages me from His Word.  For my spiritual needs I spent 30 days in fasting.  I prayed earnestly and got closer to the Lord. 

 

This year I shared the Gospel with 1,571 People, followed up with 1,345 people and distribute Gospel tracts to 1,228 unbelievers.  I led 248 people to the Lord and brought 358 people to the church for the first time.  I spent 725 hours in intercessory prayer.  I prayed for 902 sick people and many got healed.  I would like to share one testimony with you.

 

Man Bahadur is 29 years old.  He is married with a son and a daughter.  Man Bahadur was born and brought up in an orthodox Buddhist family.  His father was a head Lama (Buddhist priest) in his village.  Whenever there were sick people around the village, he used black magic to cure them.  One day Man Bahadur got very sick.  His stomach was swollen, and he could not eat or drink.  Every day his father performed witchcraft to heal him, but he could not.   The villagers lost respect for his father because he could not heal his own son.  It went on for three years and Man Bahadur got worse. 

 

Seeing no change his relatives took him to the hospital.  He stayed in the hospital for almost two years.  His parents spent thousands of rupees for his treatment and medication, but he was still not well.

 

One day with tears rolling down their cheeks, Man Bahadur and his wife came to visit me at 5:00 in the morning.  They shared the entire story with me.  I served them tea and then shared the Good news of Jesus.  As I shared, both of them wept again.  Soon I was able to lead them in the sinner's prayer.

 

That morning I anointed Man Bahadur with oil and prayed in tongues.  While praying I felt healing power flowing through me.  After one hour of prayer Man Bahadur fell down on the ground.  I picked him up and laid him on my bed.  After 25 minutes he woke up with a big smile on his face.  He said, “THERE IS NO PAIN!”  We all thanked God for His mercy.  From that day he was completely healed and free from pain.

 

Seeing this miracle, Man Bahadur’s entire family, including his father got saved.  Now they are active members in our church.

 

My vision for 2006 is to win 1,000 people to Christ.  Also, my goal is to start two new fellowships this year.  I will deeply appreciate your prayers for the following needs.  Please pray for a motor bike for evangelism outreach, a TV to show Jesus film to the unbelievers, a piece of our own land to conduct church services in and new workers to assist me in the Gospel work.  Thank you and God bless you.
