SOUTHWEST ASIA
For many years we have been searching for the right man in Asia and we found him this year in Pastor
Kumar Singh Praja, a humble and powerful leader in his home nation of Nepal.
As CapMin's global director for Southwest Asia, Pastor Kumar is charged with recruiting Bible teach-
ers to lead discipleship ministries to national leaders in that part of the world. He also leads a weekly
Bible study to national leaders in the Federal Parliament of Nepal in the Kathmandu Capitol. Pastor
Kumar graduated from Jesus College in Kathmandu in 2012 and holds a bachelor's degree in theolog y.
He is a 2010 graduate of the Hetauda School of Management. Pastor Kumar has completed training
in Christian leadership and with Evangelism Explosion International. He serves as pastor at Bangnam
Church, and also as a director for the childrens' home. He is the national leader and a teacher for the
international Christian group, Open Hands. He is also senior advisor for the Pastors' Association,
Nepal and President at CLC Christian, Nepal. Pastor Kumar is a Bible teacher with Kingdom Builders
International Institute. He is also an experienced lecturer who speaks Nepali, Hindi, and English. Pastor
Kumar and his wife Seema have a son and a daughter and have adopted 14 children from a nearby village.
Pastor Kumar believes that Christian leaders should proclaim the Gospel. He wanted to join with
CapMin to help fulfill the Great Commission (Matthew 28:16-20) and disciple political leaders. "ere
are Christians in the political parties in Southwest Asia, but without the church's help, they forget to
serve God," he said. "is ministry is highly beneficial to their spiritual development, and therefore, I
want to be a part of Capitol Ministries and this worthy work."
