A bus for Nepal

Hare Krsna! Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! As you all know, last year a devastating earthquake hit Nepal.

More Book Distribution in Iraq

Normally I'm out on missions about 12 hours a day, so to stay motivated to go out and distribute books is hard to maintain. I dragged myself out and went to my normal spots.
