Since 2011, we have been actively involved in missions, evangelism, and church planting among the Marwari tribe in three districts of Sindh province and the Bahawalpur area of Punjab. This long-term ministry effort is being carried out by a dedicated team of 12 members in Sindh and 5 in Bahawalpur, all faithfully serving among the Marwari people. Each year, by God’s grace, around 150 individuals from this tribe are baptized, and the number of believers continues to grow steadily in both regions. As a result of ongoing outreach and discipleship, there are now approximately 150 house churches established among the Marwari, and this number continues to increase. We support our team members on a monthly basis, enabling them to remain focused on the work. To facilitate their mobility and expand their reach, we have also provided motorbikes for travel to remote areas. In addition to spiritual outreach, we have set up six sewing centers that serve as both vocational training hubs and platforms for sharing the Gospel with Marwadi women. Through these centers, each year 30 to 40 young women come to know Christ, demonstrating the powerful impact of combining practical skills with the message of hope. We praise God for the fruit of this ministry and remain committed to seeing the Marwari people reached, discipled, and empowered as the body of Christ continues to grow among them.
Since 2011, our Family Life Ministry has played a vital role in transforming mindsets and building strong Christian families among the Marwari tribe. One of the most significant impacts has been in addressing the cultural norm of child marriage, where girls are often married between the ages of 12 and 15. Through consistent teaching, counseling, and leadership training, many Marwari believers in Jesus Christ have chosen not to follow this tradition, instead valuing the education and maturity of their daughters. In addition, we have been equipping both male and female leaders within the Marwadi community to serve effectively in Christian ministry. These trained leaders are now playing a key role in strengthening families, guiding new believers, and helping to disciple others within their tribe.

Since 2017, we have been actively engaged in serving families living and working at brick kilns. This work came into full focus during the COVID-19 pandemic, when we were able to distribute significant quantities of food, clothing, and other essential items to those in need. Beyond meeting physical and social needs, we have also remained committed to caring for people’s spiritual well-being, offering hope, encouragement, and the message of the Gospel to those often forgotten by society.
We have been able to buy out two families from debt slavery. We have many more families waiting to be freed from debt slavery. Earlier in 2025 we have also purchased a piece of land for the brick kiln families to build worship and community place with a capacity of around two hundred people. The issue of debt slavery is very accute in Pakistan and has been acknowledged by the UN. There are approximately 1.5 million Christians working as debt slaves on brick kilns in almost all four provinces of Pakistan.
Since the fall of Kabul in September 2022, we have been actively involved in serving Afghan refugees who have fled their homeland in search of safety and stability. Our ministry has provided holistic support to these families, addressing their social, mental, and psychological needs, while also offering practical help such as food, housing, financial assistance, and medical care. We have guided many through the complex processes of visa renewal and application, helping them navigate uncertain legal and immigration challenges. Alongside these tangible services, we have also been sharing spiritual hope and encouragement, walking with them in their journey of healing and adjustment. While this work is going well and lives are being touched, the needs among Afghan refugees remain overwhelming and far beyond what we can meet alone. We are actively seeking more friends and partners who are willing to stand with us and support this vital work, so that these vulnerable families can continue to experience hope, dignity, and restoration.
One ministry that is especially close to our hearts is the Family Life Ministry. In 2006, we launched the Family Life Ministry with a passion to support, counsel, and restore families in crisis. Since then, this ministry has been a great blessing to hundreds of couples and families, many of whom were on the verge of complete breakdown. We are deeply thankful for how God has used us to bring healing to others, and we truly cherish this ministry as one of the most meaningful parts of the work we do. We continue to see God restore what seemed hopeless and bring new life into families, and we give Him all the glory for this ongoing work.
Relief work, or mercy ministry, has become a vital and deeply meaningful part of our overall mission. Although we never initially anticipated being involved in this kind of work when we began our ministry, the ongoing challenges faced by people in Pakistan—especially natural disasters like flooding, and widespread persecution of Christians—compelled us to respond. Pakistan remains one of the top ten most dangerous countries in the world for Christians, and persecution is a regular and painful reality. In extreme cases, this includes the burning of homes and churches, displacements, and loss of livelihood. In these times of crisis, our relief ministry has stepped in to provide emergency support, food, shelter, clothing, and care to those affected. Since 2011, we have been actively involved in nearly every major incident of persecution, standing alongside persecuted believers and helping them rebuild their lives. This ministry of compassion has become an essential part of our work, and we believe it reflects the heart of Christ in bringing comfort, dignity, and hope to those suffering for their faith.
