Ordained Youth Pastor and passionate book translator.
What I'm looking for
I am an ordained Youth Pastor with a strong commitment to serving young people through discipleship and counseling. My journey has led me to organize and facilitate various events, Bible studies, and retreats, fostering a supportive community within the Himalayan Evangelical Church. My passion for teaching extends beyond the church, as I also serve as a Bible Trainer, traveling across Nepal to equip local pastors with essential training.
In addition to my pastoral work, I am a dedicated book translator, specializing in translating significant theological works from English to Nepali. My freelance projects have included translating renowned texts such as 'Fundamentals of Faith' and 'The Gospel According to Christ.' I am currently working on translating 'Westminster’s Confession of Faith,' which reflects my commitment to making theological resources accessible to the Nepali-speaking community.
My administrative experience at the Himalayan Graduate School of Theology has honed my organizational skills, allowing me to effectively assist students and manage various academic processes. I am also an entrepreneur, collaborating with local farmers to enhance coffee production and establish fair trade practices. My diverse skill set and experiences enable me to contribute meaningfully to any organization I am part of.
