healing that leads to salvation
July 2026
Twenty-three years ago, I was born into an idol-worshiping Hindu family as the eldest son. My parents named me B.M. Today, our family consists of five members, including my younger brother and my wife, whom I married a few years ago. While we have not yet been blessed with children, we remain hopeful and trusting in God's timing. We belong to a highly marginalized and disadvantaged minority community in Nepal. Our family is landless, forcing us to reside on someone else's property.
A pivotal moment occurred about fifteen years ago when my mother suddenly fell gravely ill. Though we sought help at a local health center, her condition steadily deteriorated. With no other options left, my father took her to a nearby church. The believers there prayed over her, and she immediately experienced relief and physical improvement. Following this breakthrough, my parents began attending church services regularly.
Through my mother’s miraculous healing, our entire family including myself and my brother had the opportunity to hear, understand, and accept the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Witnessing her restoration led our whole household to place our faith in the Lord. The pastor of a Christian church nurtured our spiritual growth by teaching us the Bible. Through the Lord's grace, we were delivered from idol worship and transformed into children of light. My father, who previously struggled with alcohol addiction during his time practicing idol worship, completely abandoned both alcohol and idols after joining the church.
Despite our ongoing material hardships, our family has continued to grow together in prayer, faith, and scripture study, remaining deeply committed to serving the Lord. Our path intersected with the ministry of Acts when a training director visited our district and held a brief fellowship gathering at our church, which was attended by around twenty local pastors. It was during this meeting that I first learned about the Acts training.
Participating in Acts training completely transformed my walk of faith. The training taught me how to live an exemplary Christian life, proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, share my testimony with unreached people groups, and plant new house fellowships. Applying these lessons, I have successfully established a house fellowship in a village located approximately seven miles from my home, where I now regularly share the Gospel.
