Karna Bahadur Ghalan’s life was changed forever when he saw his wife healed from a grave illness after prayer. He was the witchdoctor in his Nepalese village, unable to heal his wife. A Christian offered prayer for her and she recovered. Karna Bahadur and his wife decided to give their lives to Jesus.
They began to go to church. When their pastor died Karna Bahadur’s family decided to set up a church in their home village. Today, their youngest son Dil is pastor, assisted by his eldest brother Birsingh with the Nepali Bible at the centre of their ministry.

According to Rev Cao Shengje the president of the China Christian Council – the Beijing Olympics will be a great opportunity for sharing between Chinese Christians and Christians around the world. ‘The Bible unites us!’
Written Love
In Costa Rica, Vilma Delgado had a terrible childhood. One of six sisters and a brother, her mother ran away and her alcoholic father abused her. She left home at a very young age and lived on the streets.
13 long hard years of drug abuse later she went to a Christian rehabilitation centre and gave her life to Jesus.
She loves the Bible, going from door to door selling it. Vilma says – ‘It’s a ministry – this is the daily bread, the handbook, the manual, written love – written peace’.
