 Community of Christ is calling for prayers following severe flooding in central Nepal, which has affected communities along the Bootkoski River, including Nuwakot, home to three Community of Christ congregations in Deurali, Raigaun, and Tupche.
Families connected with the Deurali and Raigaun congregations are reported to be safe. In Tupche, several families have experienced serious damage or destruction to their homes and livelihoods, and floodwaters swept away some small businesses. Communication disruptions have also left a few family members out of contact. No deaths have been reported among Community of Christ families at this time. Stephen Thompson of World Accord reports that its programs in Nepal have not been affected by the flooding. A local leader, however, expects the flooding to have many long-term effects across the country. We hold the people of Nepal in our thoughts and prayers as communities face the immediate effects of the flooding and what lies ahead.
