Thank you for your prayers with us connecting into the community here. We are thankful that our visas are completed for the next year. Your prayers for Becky's Nepal Health Professions Council license to come through would be fantastic. Apparently, she can practise with an application in process. We expect to hear back in 1-3months.
Becky started May 5th at the hospital. She enjoys working alongside 3 other physios, 2 assistants and an occupational therapist in the rehab department. The days are filled from 9 to 5 with a 1/2 hour break for lunch. Her patients come from tree falls, work injuries and road traffic accidents with varying amounts of disability. With everything in Nepali, she comes home mentally and physically exhausted; but is making leaps and bounds in her language. Nevertheless, her presence is much appreciated by her patients and colleagues as she brightens up their day with another staff member to share the burden.
The workshop crew have been vital to helping us set up the home. I've enjoyed learning to take down bamboo and about making mortise and tenon joints for stools. It's been a privilege to laugh and learn with locals. Please pray for our interactions with this group of people that help the hospital run in practical ways.
Toby and Kaelyn have enjoyed the transition to the Tansen Tutorial Group. They do miss the amenities and food variety in Kathmandu; but they are appreciating the privileges of a simpler more outdoor life here.
We all enjoy the new life here.

Prayers

- Home rhythms: everyone to be joyfully involved in household chores.
- Toby's salvation and that all members of the family see how we can each be individually and collectively involved in sharing the goodness of God with those around us.
- Salvation of our neighbours. Many of whom have witnessed the Lord's transformational work in and through the hospital. Prayers especially for Dhurba (workshop) and his older brother Ganesh (Guest House Host).
- Patients at the hospital: There is a social services team that prays over each patient and it's a place where miracles are consistently happen under bold proclamation of "We Serve, Jesus Heals"
- in order to stay long term we would have to arrange for an educational plan for the kids beyond grade 5. We are grateful for the many options it is that are available; please pray for wisdom in selecting and implementing one to try for our transition trial this fall.
