It is a profound honor to reach out to the global community through this platform.
The Islamic Republic of Pakistan, currently the sixth most populous nation in the world, is home to a diverse population comprising 97% Muslims and 3% religious minorities. Among these, Christians form the largest minority group. Sadly, Pakistan continues to experience extreme religious intolerance, which has led to tragic terrorist attacks on churches, schools, marketplaces, and other public spaces—claiming countless innocent lives.
Christians in Pakistan face numerous challenges in securing quality education, healthcare, dignified employment in higher government and public offices, decent housing, and basic environmental hygiene. These systemic issues are further compounded by a persistent lack of political will to integrate Christians into mainstream society or to repeal discriminatory laws that restrict their freedoms.
Since its founding in 1990, the National Baptist Church of Pakistan (NBCP) has been steadfast in its commitment to serving the Christian community. Guided by the teachings of Jesus Christ and rooted in a holistic development approach, NBCP has established three autonomous wings to extend its mission with special focus on Christians:
1. Interfaith League Against Poverty (I-LAP)-PAK) – Community Development Wing
2. Pakistan Interfaith League (PIL) – Socio-Political Advocacy Wing
3. HumSub Digital Media Pvt. Ltd. – Media and Communication Wing
Through these ministries, NBCP reaches out to marginalized Christian communities, advocates for interfaith harmony for peaceful coexistence, lobbies for policy reforms, works to alleviate suffering and educates the broader population about the constitutional rights of religious minorities. Lawmakers, policymakers, and religious scholars are engaged to uphold the constitutional rights of minorities, while also sensitizing and educating the wider public about these rights through impactful online and community-based programs.
On behalf of NBCP and the Christian community of Pakistan, I humbly request your continued prayers for our teams—that the Lord may protect and strengthen them as they bring the message of salvation to those who have yet to hear it. I also invite you to support NBCP Ministries through your generous donations, so that the name of our Lord may be glorified throughout Pakistan.
With profound regards,
Sajid Sandhu
Chairman NBCP
