🇵🇰 Pakistan | From One Home Visit to a Growing Hunger for God
A simple visit unexpectedly became a turning point in the lives of an entire family!
Missionary Tariq shared that the Lord greatly blessed their ministry in Pakistan last year. During a visit to a Jat family, a household that had heard of Christianity but had little understanding of the Gospel, he continued to walk alongside them and study the Bible with them. Over time, their hunger to know God continued to grow.
🌍 【Did You Know About the Jat People?】
The Jat are a large ethnic group in South Asia, primarily found in Pakistan and India. Most Jat people are Muslim.
According to Joshua Project, Pakistan’s largest Muslim Jat population is approximately 32.36 million. Christians and Evangelicals each make up less than 0.1% of the population, making this a people group with a great need to hear the Gospel.
💡 【A Real Testimony of Transformation】
One of the sons in the family shared that God’s Word completely changed his life, freeing him from being controlled by anger.
This transformation caught the attention of people in the neighborhood and also led several relatives to voluntarily join the Bible study. What began as a single home visit has quietly blossomed into a greater opportunity for the Gospel.
📖 “The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.”— Psalm 119:130
