Update · September 30, 2026
A month after horrifying floods struck Nepal, the relief effort led by our indigenous partners is bringing comfort, health, and hope to families rebuilding their lives in the mountain valleys.
Teams of Christians from the capital have trekked high into the mountains with Joshua and Prem to deliver filters, sharing clean water and the love of Jesus with flood survivors.
“This is truly wonderful, and we are very thankful for this provision. We were able to reach people with God’s love.” — Nepali church member
From the field
Update · September 17, 2026
The last emergency filters have left our factory by air. Joshua received another shipment as it cleared customs and is heading back to the destruction zone. Please pray for his teams on the grueling 8-hour trek. It normally takes 2 hours, but the roads have washed away.
“They were all saying all the water was muddy. Other people gave bottled water and we already finished it, but you gave us something so useful for our pure drinking water.” — Joshua
Nepal’s Minister of Health wants to join a distribution team in person.
