Pastor Mohan Limbu was confronted by about 60 local Hindus while distributing Bibles in a Nepali village. The Hindus accused him of giving the villagers money to convert to Christianity. He was told to leave the village and never return.

After leaving the village on his motorcycle, he noticed about 10 men following him. He tried to outrun his pursuers, but he couldn't escape. The men surrounded him and beat him severely before stealing his  motorcycle and leaving.

Please Pray!

• Please pray that this pastor will heal quickly, both physically and emotionally.
• Pray that the presence and peace of God will comfort him and his family.
• Pray that God's word will take root in the hearts of the villagers and turn them from darkness to light.

"Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy."

- 1 Pet. 4:12-13 -

Some of the ways Voice Of the Martyrs assists Christians in Nepal is through radio broadcasts, Christian literature and support for pastors.
