I would like to attend church when I am here on business in Kathmandu, Nepal. Unfortunately, I am having a hard time finding out when and where the branch meets. Please help!

I'd suggest going to maps.lds.org and inputting your location.
Have you searched the Help Center? Try doing a Google search and adding "site:churchofjesuschrist.org/help" to the search criteria.

That’s the first thing I tried. The closest location it shows me is a branch in India. I welcome other ideas!

This Church News article discusses an event that took place there last August. If you look at the caption of the picture in the article, you will see the name of someone who may be able to help.

The article showed up in a Google search using the term (without quotes) "lds church kathmandu" which also displayed a link to a Facebook page and two other links which may contain helpful, if older, clues.

Depending on your sleuthing ability and the helpfulness of those clues, you may be able to find the Church there.

I hope you find it. If you are already there, it appears from what I deduce that you only have a few hours, since Saturday is the day of rest. Your target is most likely 10:00 am.

I'm from Nepal so I can help you find the branch. I know it's too late but if you're still looking, do let me know.
Thank you

I've been to the branch several times in Nepal. I believe the easiest way to get in contact with them is through Facebook.

Also, you'll definitely need a taxi (unless you feel confident riding their busses around).

P.S. The holyday in Nepal is Saturday (so this is when the members meet). Essentially you can imagine that Saturday and Sunday have been swapped. Hope this helps.

The building currently used is located close to the HAMS hospital, north of the Tribhuvan airport. The meetings currently start at 10 a.m. Saturday morning. Speakers often translate back and forth between Nepali and English.

Thanks for the info, but I would hope the original poster is already home from his business trip to Nepal.

Hi I am going on a business trip in April. Can you please share the address and any contacts (name and phone numbers) of leadership at the Kathmandu branch?

If you go to churchofjesuschrist.org/maps/meetinghouses/ and enter Nepal, you get THIS as a result.

The India New Delhi Mission Branch is the closest unit showing. By clicking on it, you'll get the acting Branch Leader's contact info.

Check with a ward clerk. He can probably look up information in LCR and provide it to you.

You could also contact the Branch in Kathmandu via Facebook, their FB page is quite active! Just search for "Church of Jesus Christ Kathmandu Nepal" and it should show up for you.
