Speech therapy for Sagar and Jasmine ('Get a life!' bonus film2)

INF the International Nepal Fellowship is a Christian mission serving Nepali people through health and development work [web site: www.inf.org]. Speech therapy for Sagar and Jasmine is one of three bonus films available with a video in support of INFs Get a life! campaign on behalf of people with disabilities. The campaign is inspired by Jesus words: I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full [John 10:10], and is endorsed by the well-known US Christian writer Philip Yancey.

Nepal is one of the poorest countries in the world the incidence of disability is very high and has been made even worse by the countrys Peoples War.
