Pakistan is a nation rich in diversity, yet the Christian community encounters numerous obstacles, particularly when it comes to finding places to worship. While larger cities like Lahore, Islamabad, Karachi, Faisalabad, and Sialkot and other large and developed cities have a good number of established churches, the vast majority of Pakistan’s approximately 200 cities, villages and towns are without any Christian congregations nearby communities. Sometime people have to travel to other villages to attend the church,  This lack of churches creates significant challenges for believers who wish to connect with others in fellowship and spiritual growth.

The Significance of Church Planting in Pakistan

1. Improving Access to Worship
   For many Christians in Pakistan, the closest church can be far away, making regular participation difficult or even impossible. Church planting directly addresses this issue by creating local congregations in areas that lack them. By establishing easily accessible places of worship, we empower believers to engage in their faith consistently and freely.

2. Building Community and Support
   Churches play a crucial role in fostering community life. They provide spaces for Christians to come together, offer support, and develop lasting relationships. In areas without churches, believers often feel isolated and disconnected. By planting new churches, we promote community building and mutual support among Christians in Pakistan.

3. Encouraging Spiritual Development and Discipleship
   Churches are essential for spiritual growth. They offer programs for discipleship, education, and outreach that help individuals deepen their understanding of their faith. By establishing new congregations, we create more opportunities for Christians to participate in meaningful spiritual development through church planting efforts.

4. Strengthening Local Leadership
   Church planting fosters the growth of local leaders who can guide their communities in faith and service. By investing in the training and empowerment of indigenous pastors and leaders, we ensure that the church reflects the cultural context of the communities it serves, thereby increasing its relevance and impact.

5. A Vision for the Future of Christianity in Pakistan
   Our ambitious goal is to plant 200 churches in each city throughout Pakistan. This vision goes beyond mere numbers; it aims to transform lives and communities. By building a strong network of churches, we can ensure that every believer has a place to worship, connect, and serve.
