Dear Praying Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Blessings and Greetings to you in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Thank you for your prayers which you are making for United Ministries Pakistan. We once again thank and praise our Lord and Saviour for giving us an opportunity to share about our ministry work for the month of September 2006. We hope and pray that the Lord is using you all for His kingdom as He is doing here in Faisalabad, Pakistan. I am going to share how the Lord is using us here, and also want to thank you all for your prayers.
Sunday Prayer meetings in seven areas of District Faisalabad were held regularly in the month of September 2006. All these meetings were greatly blessed by the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and we are thankful to the Lord Jesus Christ that many people were healed in the Sunday prayer meetings. Last month we especially prayed for Sister Clella and sick people, and Jesus did many miracles in the prayer meetings. In our Sunday services the size of the congregation increased in every meeting, so we are praying for a separate church building for each area. Please continue to pray for us and for our regular prayer meetings.
Outreach Gospel program was greatly blessed in the month of September 2006. Outreach prayer meetings have been blessed in Rabioa, Chak # 24, Goal Patha, Pakpatan, Chaman Zaar Colony, Chak # 6 RB, Tamboo Colony, Shorkoat, Saeedabad, Chinioat, Ghulam Muhammadabad, Gojra, and Dasua. Our congregation is increasing day by day in the Outreach areas. We plan to arrange prayer meetings on a regular basis in those areas. Please continue to pray for us and for our Outreach Gospel Program. United Ministries Pakistan Pastors and Evangelists have to travel great distance over rough roads in order to reach villages and distant areas for preaching the word of God, and to other areas that are inaccessible by public or private transport. We are praying for Ministry transport as we have no ministry conveyance and have to travel on public transport. By having ministry transport we can increase the Outreach Gospel program.
In the month of August 2006 Bible teaching classes were conducted by four Pastors, namely Pastor Saleem Javaid (Topic: Growing Seed, Mark 4:24-26), Pastor Aslam Pervaiz (Topic: Lost Sheep, Matthew 18:12-14), Pastor Shoukat Fazal (Topic: New wine in old wineskins, Matthew 9:17) and Pastor Javaid Hadayat (Topic: Faithful and wise servant, Luke 12:42-48). The youth are learning the word of God with Great Spirit. We want to start more Biblical teaching program in different areas for youth. Please pray for this program.
The Sunday School system is a great source of Biblical knowledge for the children. Through Sunday School children are learning the Christian spiritual song,s and through colorful story books they learn about the miracles of Jesus Christ. This program was started in four areas of Faisalabad, namely Railway Colony, 213-Maryamabad, Waheed Park, and Warispura Faisalabad. In the month of September 2006 the Sunday School classes were given regularly in these areas and the number of children is increasing. Pray for these children, we want to do a lot for them because the majority of these children belongs to poor families.
In the month of September 2006 Pastor Naeem Akhtar, Pastor Asif Qamar visited in District Jail Faisalabad every week, and prayed with the Christian prisoners. Many Muslim prisoners also gathered in prayer meetings, and they hear the word of God. In that jail there are 80 Christian prisoners in different cases. There are five prisoners who are sentenced in blasphemy cases. Our pastors are visiting that jail and praying with the prisoners to make their faith stronger in the Lord Jesus Christ. They also visited the families of those prisoners and prayed with them. United Ministries Pakistan is helping those families because their wage earners are in the jail in false blasphemy cases. Please pray and send help for those innocent prisoners and their families.
In the month of September 2006 our Drama ministry performed in the drama on “The Ten Virgins” arranged in the Nishatabad for the community. In this way people are learning the word of God very easily because when they watch the youth are performing the truth that we must change our lives for Lord Jesus Christ. In this way children understand the central idea of the massage easily. Youth participated with great enthusiasm in this event. This drama has great impact on the children and adult of the community. Please pray for drama ministry and all members of drama ministry.
Evangelist sister Rafia is a coordinator of the Women's Ministry, and she is working in young girls and women. She is going in their houses and preaching the word of God to them. Jesus Christ is blessing the Women's ministry, because the ministry is growing day by day. Many women and young girls have had their lives changed after listening to the word of God, and now they are the members of women's ministry, and preaching the word of God in other women and girls. Please pray for the women's ministry that God may use our sisters for His Glory.
Recently we have started a primary school in Dasuha for poor children. Our Primary school helps Village children to have a good basic education and come up in life. They are being educated at school and we believe that the Christian values taught bring stability to their lives and the contact can also lead their parents into the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. The children are the future. We do need your support in our formal education school as every children in the school are studying free of cost and getting books, note books, stationery, uniforms, shoes, etc. In United Ministries Pakistan primary school, 85 boys and girls getting an education and they are learning about the Christian teachings daily. We want to expand the school, and more children want to get education there. Please pray for the school and school children and support the school for expansion.
We have started a Sewing Centre in Railway Colony Faisalabad for women and girls. Sister Asia is the one in charge of the Sewing Center. The girls and women are coming to this sewing center and learning sewing. And most important, the greatest gift these women receive is the good news of Lord Jesus Christ. Before each tailoring session starts there is a short devotion time in which they hear the Word of God, who loves and cares for them unconditionally. Please pray for our sisters who are learning sewing. In future we want to start the sewing centers in different areas where we are preaching Please pray for this mission of the United Ministries Pakistan.
United Ministries Pakistan has started free Dispensary in Railway Colony Faisalabad where we are giving medicine to the needy free of cost. Brother Riaz Masih is the incharge of the Dispensary.
