This is a new church in Karachi.
Pastor John works in one of the worst persecuting countries on earth for Christian believers. Hundreds of followers of Jesus are martyred each year in Pakistan, and this past Easter Sunday, more than seventy were killed in a suicide bomb attack in a children’s park in Lahore.Pastor Muazzam John leads a ministry called Nehemiah Trust Pakistan. This ministry reaches out well beyond just the congregations they pastor. They help orphans, windows, uneducated people, and the persecuted get back on their feet. NTP helps with educating children, and keeping widows alive with medical and physical needs. Pastor John himself has planted twenty-three churches so far, and his ministry team together look after more than one hundred churches in a country that martyrs Christians frequently.
Muazzam is married to Shumaila John, and together they are raising three Christian children in one of the scariest countries in the world. Last year alone, they planted six churches, taught more than seven hundred new believers, and reached over four thousand people with the Gospel message.
Remember to pray for the Persecuted Christians and their Church!
