Mission Project in Pakistan
The Lord opens a door of ministry for Sermon & Song in Pakistan
About Our Missions Project in Pakistan
In 2008 I became acquainted with Akbar Masih in Rajana Pakistan. He had a burden for the people but had found no way to do more than visit and have prayer in some of the homes in his village. Since we have been working with him he has been called to preach, started a church in his home and a preschool with a full time teacher in another village. He has translated and had printed 7 of our books. About every month he has an evangelistic prayer meeting in another area and gathers from 100 to 200 people to read and study the books and the Bibles we have purchased. Our radio audience and others has shared this burden with us. If you would like a part in a great mission field contact us or just make a donation for the Pakistan Ministry.
Update on the Pakistan Missionary Project
(December 2011) Since the last update on the ministry in Pakistan, God has done a wonderful work. Pastor Akbar was ordained into the Baptist ministry at Anchor Baptist Church in Pisgah Forest NC. Pastor Akbar is now full time in the ministry of Blessed Hope Baptist Church, Blessed Hope Baptist School and monthly evangelistic services in Pakistani villages with hundreds in attendance and many professions of faith. Still going strong are two preschools and 12 Sunday schools.
Here are a few of his letters:
May the love of Father and His grace be always with you.
This is my pleasure to write you that we had meeting in 257 GB. The peoplefrom Chak No 257 GB is 15 km away from the office of Blessed Hope Baptist school and church Rajana Pakistan. Most of the villagers are labor and working in the land of Muslim and getting very small income. There are only 10 families living in this village and only a few people who are literate. They told that we had requested many pastors to come in our village but no one came to our village for the meeting due to we are small in numbers. They were very much thankful to the Blessed Hope Baptist Church Rajana.
Many of the Muslims also came to meeting just to know how we pray. The Muslims were very glad to know our worship system and listen the sermon in very interesting.
One of the Muslim send us prayer request for the peace in Pakistan and also for his family.
The meeting started at 11 am and continued until 3:00 pm. Thank God, we had rain from last four days continuously but today was very fine day. The people from 192 GB, Muridwala, KALIANPUR , 260GB, 258 GB and Mamukanjan joined the meeting. Many of the people came to the meeting by walking. More than 200 people excluding children. Pastor Shahid Maih and Brother Nadeem gill took part in worship and sung many sweet worship songs with the church. Brother Nadeem belongs to Rawalpendi and I invited him to join us for the worship. Pastor Shamoon Masih prayed at the beginning of the meeting and also prayed for all our benefactors who are supporting us in spreading the Word of the Lord in Pakistan.
My dear brother Bennett Collins
Greeting of peace and love of Christ be with you. We and fine and we do hope that you will be fine there by the grace of Lord Jesus Christ. I am very much glad to write you that this is very nice experience to work full time in our own school and work for the full time of ministry. The parents are very much glad to receive me in the school and I am also enjoying to work.
The very great thing is that the Muslim parents are coming to visit the school and requesting me to include our children in the Christmas play and program and i am so excited that this is way to teach the Muslims about Jesus Christ indirectly. They want that their children will have confidence for the stage and we want that they will know about the doctrine of Jesus. What blessing of God which He is granting to us.
Yesterday i was teaching a small Christmas song and the Muslim Children were also singing with the Christian students.
Brother thank you so very much for granting me opportunity for the School in Pakistan. Hope God will bless me and my family to work for his glory in Pakistan. Now i will have lot of time to translate your books in Urdu language in School.
May God shower his blessing upon you and your family and bless all those people who are supporting us to work for Jesus in Pakistan and you efforts for Him will be fruit full. Please say my regard to Sister Helen. Bye for now God bless you.
Your Brother in Christ,
Pastor Akbar Masih
Director Sermon and Song Ministry
