Update and pictures
Last night King Gyanendra of Nepal gave a speech to the nation and said he would return the country back to the way it was before February 2005- a constitutional monarchy. Many nations (including America) praised the king for his boldness and willingness to restore the nation back to the people, but the people aren’t satisfied. They say the king had his chance and now they demand an absolute democracy. They have seen the King?s lies and are tired of being oppressed?.they want freedom. This morning during church the news came that the government called another shot-on-sight curfew, so we had to let our people hurry home before someone got hurt. The violence is long from over here and the only solution the people will accept is for the King to give up his kingdom.
All through school I studied the history of nations that won their freedom through a people?s revolution, but to experience it first hand is quite another thing. Please continue to pray for my people.
Our team is safe right now…Praise God! And we’re just waiting to see what amazing thing God is going to do through all of this. May His name be glorified.
