Who We Are
A Gospel-Centered Community for All Nations
Welcome to Kathmandu International Fellowship, a viabrant, Spirit-filled, Christ-centered church family where people from every nation, culture, language, and Christian tradition are invited to gather around the good news of Jesus Christ.

In a world often divided by culture, nationality, and denomination, we believe that the cross of Christ unites us as one family. Our identity is not first found in our backgrounds, traditions, or preferences, but in the saving grace of Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us and rose again in victory.
At KIF, we joyfully welcome believers from diverse Christian traditions—Protestant, Evangelical, Anglican, Baptist, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, independent fellowships, and many others—who confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and desire to grow together in the gospel.
Our Foundation: The Gospel of Jesus Christ
The gospel is the heart of everything we do:
Jesus Christ lived the life we could not live, died the death we deserved, and rose again to give eternal life to all who trust in Him.
The cross is not merely a symbol for us—it is the center of our worship, our fellowship, our mission, and our hope. Because of Christ’s sacrifice, people from every tribe, language, people, and nation are invited into God’s family.
A Church Family for Every Nation

- A long-term resident of Nepal,

Our Prayer
Our prayer is that every person who walks through our doors would encounter not merely a church service, but the living Christ Himself. We desire to be a community where the beauty of the gospel is displayed through our unity, our worship, and our love for one another.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes… For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed – a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: ‘The righteous will live by faith.“ (Romans 1:16-17)
Welcome to Kathmandu International Fellowship.
Main Service – Saturdays : 10:30 AM
