Pakistan

The greatest gospel gap in the world is in 50 countries—they have barely any new, thriving churches. And nearly 75% of all the world’s unreached people (3.6 billion) live in 12 of those 50 countries. These people have the least access to the gospel in their own language.

We can engage in strategic, focused prayer for the 12 countries of the world that are least reached with the gospel without ever leaving home.

Every month in 2024 we’ll feature one of these countries, familiarize you with its culture, and share prayer requests addressing the country’s specific needs. We believe the light of Jesus can shine through!

All About Pakistan

Pakistan means “the land of the pure.” Pray with us that countless Pakistanis come to know the pure, abundant life of Christ.

Pakistan is known for its colorful, intricate truck art. The designs from these mobile canvases have even made it into coloring books!

The famous alpine flower called edelweiss is found in many mountain ranges, including the Himalayas, which run through Pakistan.

The markhor is the national animal of Pakistan and appears on the rupee note commemorating the 75th anniversary of Pakistan’s independence.

The Deodar Cedar (Cedrus deodara) is the national tree of Pakistan.

Men in Central Asia often wear a wool hat called a karakul. In Pakistan, it’s called a jinnah cap, and it’s named after the founding father of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who often wore this type of cap.

Many ministries broadcast sermons and other gospel-centered content via satellite TV to remote regions in Pakistan. Pray for God to use these broadcasts to draw many remote people groups to the good news of new life in Jesus.

Pakistan regularly experiences natural disasters like earthquakes, floods and landslides. Please pray for God to equip Christians in the region with needed resources to help them minister to their neighbors in timely, life-changing ways.

Set a phone alarm for 10:02 and pray with us this month. Ask God to inspire more believers to take the gospel across Pakistan.

“He (Jesus) told them, ‘The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field.’”
— Luke 10:2, New International Version
