Isaiah 48:5-9
Is this the kind of fast I have chosen, only a day for a man to humble himself? Is it only for bowing one's head like a reed and for lying on sackcloth and ashes? Is that what you call a fast, a day acceptable to the LORD ?
"Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter— when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?

UVN [United Vision Nepal] likes to see the lives, communities and the nation of Nepal transformed both spiritually and physically by witnessing the love of Christ through prayers, words and deeds.
MISSION AND BELIEF
In cooperation and partnership with the Nepali Christian community, friends and partners of Nepal around the world, we would like to serve individuals and communities in the rural parts of Nepal to address both physical and spiritual needs through various micro level projects and programmes.
We believe people are under the bondage of sin and oppressed by the spiritual darkness, which is a major cause of poverty and a corrupt society. We believe the spiritual transformation is the key and it opens up the door to bring about physical transformation that upraises not just the life standard but to help people to live with happy, peace, love, hope and meaningful lives in the family and community. We would like to raise a trained indigenous leader with both vocational and spiritual training for each village community who would become an Ambassador of Christ and instrument for God’s will be done and His Kingdom come in the village or community.
AGENDA
The Gospel (to witness the love of Christ in prayer and action), Prayer & Revival, Unity, Development and Transformation of individual lives and communities.
SCRIPTURAL VALUE
Love the Lord your God with all our heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. (Mat 22: 27-39)
…go and make disciples of all nations, […] and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. (Mat 28:19)
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. The Greater love has no-one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. (John 15: 12)
Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name there am I with them. (Mat 8:19-20).
“The prayer of righteous man is powerful and effective.” (Jam 5:16)
“The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labour. For we are God’s fellow workers;...” (1 Cor 3:8-9)
“…May they be brought to a complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” (Joh 17:23)
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” (2 Cor 5:17). “The spirit of the Lord will come upon you in power, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be changed into a different person. Once these signs are fulfilled, do whatever your hand finds to do, for God is with you.”
