Dear Friend in Christ,
Greetings in the name of Lord our God.
Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliverus from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father!
I wish to let you know that I am Asim from Pakistan. I am 23 years old, am male and am Christian by faith. I am Bible Teacher and am working for Christian Community in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan from the platform of Christ Fellowship Ministries, and am working for the Ministries as a Director with them.
Christ Fellowship Ministries is working for the Christian Orphans, Semi Orphans and Street Children who do not have support from the family because of poverty and those who are forced to child labor, begging, drugs, gambling and other criminal activities because of not being tended with love and care. The Christian people do not get equal rights as the Muslims possess.
And with the passage of time the Muslims people have developed so much of grudge against the Christian that they do not wish to mix with them and do not wish to eat and drink with the same dishes and the glasses as the Christians do.
It is noteworthy to explain Pakistan's situation in detail. Pakistan is an Islamic country where the Christians form 1. 7 % of the total 135 millions of population. Being under the heavy flood of religious fundamentalism the constitutional and social prejudice and is
practiced with Christians. According to the law, Christians cannot become president, prime minister, chief of army staff and chief justice of the county. The blasphemy law, most of the causes have been founded false and based on personal rifts. The prejudice and in fact hatred among the common people of the Muslim create serious problems in the social lives of the Christians. The religious fundamentalists grown up to the grass roots level.
The Islamic fundamentalists in the country have their strong roots in the villages and small towns all over the country and the youth who went for the training for Jihad is brain washed injecting specific teaching against Christians. These terrorists if survive in their fights do not have any other skills to earn their living so they become professional terrorists and play at the hands of the religious leaders. Since the interaction of the Christians with the Muslim community have not grown and limited interaction, if any, makes Christians dependent of the Muslims, the Christians are resource less and poor and they have to depend on the Muslims for their economic and social survival. They have to depend on the Muslims for survival. This kind of interaction cannot ensure equal status for the Christians. In this background the Christians, due to their faiths, become the most vulnerable community in the country. Most of the Christians people living in the cities do the sanitary work, socially
degradable profession, and they have to cling to it for centuries as there are no prospects for them to grow. The Christians people in the villages work on the lands of the Muslims people and are considered 'out class' and `Not Touchable' in the social life.
The mission of the Christ Fellowship Ministries is to spread the Word of God through preaching, teaching and helping Christians with their basic needs of life, so that they may grow in Christian faith and spirit in suffering, hardships and troubles. And they may praise,
give thanks and glorify God. For further information, you please see that you go through the web site of Christ Fellowship Ministries.
In His Love,
