The document discusses building collaboration within the HimGlo movement through the use of technology. It proposes that an online platform could help foster relationships, share resources, and build a shared identity. The platform would allow participants to communicate, share ideas and testimonies, coordinate events, and collaborate on projects from a central online location. The goal is to inspire and empower Nepali/Himalayan Christian leaders through greater connectivity and partnership.

RELATIONSHIPS AMONG THE PARTICIPANTS WHICH
WILL FURTHER HELP BUILD A KINGDOM IDENTITY OF
THE HIMGLO MOVEMENT AS OPPOSED TO AN
