Mero naam Allie ho (my name is Allie)

Today was another beautiful day in Nepal,
started out my day reading in Isaiah 220

 In that day people will throw away
   to the moles and bats
their idols of silver and idols of gold,
   which they made to worship.
21 They will flee to caverns in the rocks
   and to the overhanging crags
from the fearful presence of the LORD
   and the splendor of his majesty,
   when he rises to shake the earth.

 22 Stop trusting in mere humans,
   who have but a breath in their nostrils.
   Why hold them in esteem?


Nepal is over 70% Hindu and about 3-5% Christian, I have so much faith in God and my prayers are not silent, Nepal is such a beautiful country filled with such beautiful people and I am praying and waiting for the day where they will turn away from false idols and turn to Jesus, a savior who loves them so much.

Anywho! The children here are freakin adorable, I am in love with all of them!! I heard it was illegal to put them in my pocket so instead I will just give them candy and dance around to Justin Bieber with them :)

Nadine, Jodie, Jenna and I spent a few hours playing soccer, learning Nepali and teaching the kids fun dances today. They LOVE Michael Jackson. Justin Bieber, Ke$ha, Black Eyed Peas and Miley Cirus! Hahah glad my iPod is full of that music ;)

I am so sad to leave Kathmandu and the kids behind but I am really excited to pick up our punjabis (clothes women wear here, look up in google images) tomorrow and trek up to Godaveri where the YWAM base is. There we will be doing some friendship evangelism, sports ministry, Christmas programs in schools and some house church bible study thing!

Christmas in Nepal will be a new experience, along with New Years, Valentines Day (not like i  have a BF LOL) oh and my birthday! Eat some cake for me on February 16th!

 ^ I like this quote a lot, playing with all the children today knowing they don't know Jesus makes me that much more stoked that I have the Holy Spirit inside of me and Jesus is something I can share with them, it is my responsibilty to share Jesus and I am so excited to!

Sorry this post is so random I am just so excited to be here to do work for Gods Kingdom, I gotta go though!

Thanks everyone for your prayers!

Love, Allie and Blanky
