Another survivor counted as blessed

Kathmandu Quake

Fast action needed to save lives

Dear Friends,

You have no doubt heard of the massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake centered near Kathmandu, Nepal, earlier this weekend. The images are heartbreaking. The death toll has exceeded 2,500 as of this writing, and will no doubt increase substantially as many who are now missing are later found buried under rubble.

Thankfully, Heaven’s Family has a network of thousands of pastors in Nepal (through the distribution in past years of 4,000 copies of the Nepalese version of The Disciple-Making Minister), many of whom are strategically located near the hardest hit areas. As you read this they have already begun using this devastating national crisis to further the gospel by counseling traumatized survivors, comforting those who’ve lost loved ones, and meeting emergency needs for food, medicine and shelter.

But these pastors and missionaries desperately need more resources. To help us help these servants bring relief to earthquake survivors in Jesus’ name, please click here. Your gift will help provide them with resources that are immediately needed.

Thank you so much for your compassion.

Because of Him,

Jeff Trotter
Director, Disaster Relief Fund
