For centuries the Kamaiya people of Nepal served as slaves to wealthy land owners. Some were treated harshly, others as part of the family. All were given a place to live and food and water.
A few years ago, after international pressure, slavery—specifically slavery of the Kamaiyas–was outlawed across Nepal. They were freed. Unfortunately, they no longer had their homes or access to the food and water they had for so long. They also had few skills outside of working in fields and helping in homes.
They needed to learn to live in their new freedom. They need people to walk with them in their new freedom and show them the way to go and live.
Sounds like people who find their freedom in Christ for the first time…always good to have someone to walk with you and show you the way…
There are approximately 200-300,000 ”ex-Kamaiyas” in villages across western Nepal. We visited with some of them from a local church. Special people.
We played with the kids and laughed with the adults. Tiffany, a registered dietician from our team, learned about their diet. 
We even drank yak milk tea with them. It was a special evening.
I’m not sure how we’ll help the Kamaiyas in the future. Their situation seems overwhelming and their poverty intense. We’re training people from their area to help with disaster response, and people from their church are helping them, but I know they could use more help than that.
Please pray with our team and others who want to help these ex-Kamaiyas. I know God has a great plan for these beautiful and generous people. If/when we’re able to help them in other ways, I’ll post the stories here.
