running out of time...

unbelievable: our time here in nepal is nearly over. 2 more days here in pokhara, one day of travelling to kathmandu, and a day in kathmandu - that's it. and there is so many friends, brothers and sisters whom we should have paid a visit; so many tasks left undone... and frankly, our own hearts are hardly in the place yet for saying goodby once again.

yet it has been a great time. on a personal note, (i) daniel have recovered pretty well from the salmonella infection i incurred over the last weekend. i felt strong enough this morning to do the scheduled teaching, but i can't properly eat yet. the whole thing, of course, is great news for my at times painful knees - i have lost some 10 to 12 pounds in just 3 days, and walking feels almost like flying at present...




here our schedule for the next few days:
Friday: wrapping up things in pokhara

Saturday: leaving pokhara 5am; 3 hours travel to dumre, where daniel preaches in a small church among lowcaste musicians - stay tuned for more infos! in the afternoon then transfer to kathmandu.

Sunday: wrapping up things in kathmandu. last minute shopping... international flight to doha (qatar) at 8pm

Monday: flight from doha to frankfurt, leaving doha at 7am. travelling then by train from frankfurt to zurich. arrival time 9pm...

peace to you all, and thanks for your continued prayer support.

Hi Burgi family! So sorry to hear about your illness, and glad to hear things seem to be better. Karina, we had a good time at our season-ending brunch for WOW. A good number came and shared how the study had been used by God in their lives. Two people said how the new prayer focus has been helpful to them. We will be praying for you all as you travel and begin your stay in Switzerland.
