Jagat Wagle was transformed from a violent career criminal to a passionate evangelist after he encountered Jesus in the Bible given to him by a stranger in 1996. Since then, he completed Bible school, became a pastor and now shepherds more than 300 believers.
However, a group of thugs who dominate the area where Jagat ministers have repeatedly threatened to harm or kill him. These thugs even bombed a church and posted pamphlets identifying Jagat as “most wanted.”
Because his life was in imminent danger, Jagat had to take refuge in the mountains. However, the anguish of that period of time left a lasting effect on Jagat’s wife and caused much suffering. Jagat remains passionate for his ministry but his wife’s condition is a heavy burden.
Pray for healing for Jagat’s wife. Pray that the Lord will strengthen, comfort and encourage her during this difficult time, and fill her with His shalom peace that surpasses all understanding. Pray that Jagat’s ministry will continue to flourish in spite of the persecution, and many people will receive salvation in Christ.
