October 1st
Janaac, (the guy from Nepalgunj that we met at the village medical camp on our second day in Gulariya) had asked if we would help him teach a two day discipleship training course in another village, a few hours away.

Kalu Ram thought this would be a great idea, so we took a public bus for the hour ride from Gulariya to Nepalgunj. Public buses in this part of the world are not for the faint of heart. Everyone should google or YouTube "Nepalese public buses." That is all.
We stayed one night with Janaac and his wife and their little baby girl, Suzanna for one night to discuss what teaching the discipleship training would entail. Janaac explained to us that in order to get to this mountain village, we would have to take a THREE hour public bus ride (don't forget to google or YouTube the buses) from Nepalgunj to a town called "Chhinchu", and than trek one to two hours through the mountains.

In the meantime, I (Megs) came down with a delightful little bug involving a very high fever and weakness. I was beginning to question whether I'd even be up for the trek...but I'm stubborn. Ask Nate.
