Who they are

The Chepang are an indigenous community originating from the mountain slopes of the Himalayas, historically tied to the forests and subsistence farming. In India, they live as a quiet minority, preserving ancestral customs while interacting with wider society in the Nepali language. They face strong pressure of cultural assimilation and remain largely cut off from opportunities to hear the gospel in an understandable way.
