February 21, 2016 Sunday #Comebacks#SprechensieDeutsch?#American#Nepalese

Get Faith
Colossians 1:23b-24  St Paul, once Saul who persecuted Christians became the disciple that fought the hardest for our faith and our new church which is the body of Christ.  There are many stories of people that made tremendous comebacks from bad to exceptionally good.  When you understand how that happens you can understand why we celebrate Christ's suffering and death which became the glorious resurrection.

On this day
1977 - Mom and I were taking a German class.  It was probably the third time for me, but Mom used to speak German at home with her family.  After all she was born in Germany but still wanted to tune it up a little.  The problem is I never spoke it well enough for her to speak with me, so neither of us were fluent.  All those years she had a copy of the Lord's Prayer on her dresser in German under the glass.  She remembered that.

1804 - The first self-propelled locomotive on rails was demonstrated in Wales. Here you go Don!

Parenting
What is your heritage?  Are both of your parents the same nationality?  My Mom was born in Germany and my Dad was born in England of Scottish parents that spent all of their life in Glasgow.  So when I was young we spent a lot of time with Mom's German cousins and friends, I identified with the Germans as a child but somewhere along the line I became a Scot.  Of course what I primarily am is American.  What about you, what do you celebrate?  St Patrick's day is coming when we are all Irish.

Nepal immigration
Nepal Immigration has been organized to regulate the movements of foreigners into, within and from Nepal. Similarly, the movements of Nepali national from and into Nepal are within its domain. The Department of Immigration (DOI) and Immigration Offices (IO) were established for the regulation of the movements of foreigners and Nepali nationals. These institutions are set up under the organizational hierarchy of the Ministry of Home Affairs/ Government of Nepal (GON).  

Organizations

The Department of Immigration is located at the capital city Kathmandu of Nepal. One Immigration Office is located at Tribhuvan international Airport in Kathmandu and one is in Pokhara (Kaski). However, Six Immigration Offices are located at southern border point with India viz. Kakarbhitta (Jhapa), Birgunj(Parsa), Belhia (Bhairahawa), Nepalgunj (Banke), Gadda Chauki (Kailali) and Mehendranagar respectively from east to west of Nepal. Two Immigration Offices Tatopani (Sindhupalchowk) and Rashuwagadi (Rashuwa) are located at the northern border point with China. I wonder how many people immigrate to Nepal?  Beautiful country but not very prosperous.
Enjoy the Day!  Make it Memorable!
