Good Land is BMS’ 2022 Harvest appeal. It’s a video appeal resource. But more importantly, it’s an opportunity for your church to support vital development in a remote community in the mountains of Nepal.
The people of Ghusel face many challenges – from poor education opportunities for their children, to precarious livelihoods and dangerous drinking water. The leaders of Ghusel heard about the work BMS World Mission partners had done in other parts of Nepal, and they asked us to come and help them, too. We listened to their request and have been working with the community to discover their hopes and dreams for a better future.
Now, they need your help to make these dreams a reality.
As BMS’ 2022 Harvest appeal, Good Land comes with an array of resources to encourage your church to pray for and support education, health and livelihoods work in Ghusel and beyond.
Your gift for Good Land will be used to support the people of Ghusel village and similar communities in Nepal.
If our appeal target is exceeded, we will use additional funds to support similar urgent work in the world’s most marginalised countries.
BMS World Mission is inviting you and your church to walk hand-in-hand with a remote community in Nepal’s mountains – and help them transform their village.
This easy-to-use Leader’s Guide includes everything you need to plan a Good Land service, including sermon inspiration and all-age activities!
Their dream. Your partnership. Together we can transform this village.

Help your congregation to engage with some of the challenges of life in Nepal and have fun at the same time by using this quiz in an all-age Good Land service.
Alternatively, why not use the questions as one round in a quiz night hosted at your church to raise funds for the Good Land appeal?
Tip: answers to all the questions are at the end of the slideshow.
Place gift envelopes on chairs before a service, along with pens. Collect the envelopes containing both cash and cheques and post them to BMS World Mission at: PO Box 49, 129 Broadway, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 8XA.
Please do give your congregation plenty of time to fill in their details on the envelopes before taking up your offering. And remember, you don’t even have to open the envelopes. Just send them straight to BMS and let us do the hard work!
Put up a Good Land poster to let your church family know when and where your service is happening!

Download and print this prayer sheet to use during your Good Land service or for those attending to take home and keep. The prayer for Ghusel also features in the Good Land reflection video.
