What Are the Key Achievements of Christian Missionary Work in Nepal?

One of the most significant achievements of Christian missionary work in Nepal can be seen in the life of Shiuli. At 21, Shiuli found herself widowed and alone in Kathmandu, with three daughters to care for. Tragedy struck when her youngest child died of malnutrition due to the family’s extreme poverty. Overwhelmed by grief, Shiuli sought solace at various religious centers but found no peace. Everything changed when GFA women missionaries visited her workplace. They shared Christ’s love and explained how Jesus offers refuge in life’s storms. Shiuli poured out her story to the missionaries, who invited her to join a GFA church. There, she found a caring community and began to experience God’s provision and restoration. She says, “The Lord has blessed me in such a wonderful way. He has provided shelter, food, special care and attention through His people. Most importantly, I am receiving fellowship.”[3]

Another remarkable achievement is the work of Pastor Kanish, who has dedicated his life to the Sudthali people. His ministry began with building relationships and later expanded to include a radio program in the Sudthali language. This program, which reaches nearly 2 million listeners daily, addresses social issues like child marriage and family challenges, with the Good News at its heart. Pastor Kanish also established an English school and collaborates with local government to improve community living standards. His efforts reflect GFA World’s commitment to comprehensive outreach, offering both practical solutions and spiritual hope.[4]
