Newfrontiers in Pakistan

We are continuing to see encouraging growth in our churches in Pakistan; however the national situation means that it is very difficult for our brothers and sisters there. Please do pray for them.

A bombing in late 2009 was very close to where one of churches meet. We now have seven churches, four in the Rawalpindi area, two others elsewhere in Punjab and one in the North West frontier province. There are opportunities to see other churches formed.
