Day 1 - Nepal Creation Conference (19 April)

Finally, the day is here for the first-ever Nepal Creation Conference! The above are the speakers - Dr.Joseph Paturi, Tom Reese, Dr.Pradhan and myself.

Those who came were mainly young people, students and pastors. Judging by their eagerness in taking notes, we are encouraged by their hunger to grow deeper in the history of Genesis. I spoke on the topic - "Building Strong Foundations in the Next Generation". Working with a translator is quite interesting - I would tell a joke - and then get a delayed response!
While the adult sessions were going on, Eunice certainly made herself at home playing with the local children! She certainly did not need a translator - in fact, she learnt a few Nepalese words by her own initiative. The words of Jesus rings true - Let the little children come...
