Nepal Ministries
As co-directors of IMCS's Nepal Ministries, Bruce & Verna Ratzlaff provide leadership and oversight of two distinct areas of ongoing mininstry:
1. Helpers4Learners - Prerana Education Partnership (PEP)
The Mission: "Though a paper airplane may be perfectly designed for flight... it cannot take flight until someone picks it up and launches it."
Together with caring supporters we launch the children of the poor in Nepal through wholistic education and hands-on nurture.
PEP is a selective, high-touch, cohort style education program for the children of the poor in Nepal.
2. Nepal - Other
Unique projects are specifically defined through promotional campaigns. Opportunity for investment in these projects are offered to donors and funded through the "Nepal - Other" designation.
Project Examples: Short Term Teams, Leadership Training, Covid-19 Relief Support, Kid's Camps, etc.
