One of our Indigenous Leaders in Pakistan sent us this beautiful testimony. He shared, “This is why we go to places no one else will. There are so many families living in darkness, convinced they are forgotten, believing lies about who they are and who God is.”

These are the words of a mother raising her children in the dumps of Pakistan:

“For years, I believed this was our destiny, to live in the dump, to sleep on the road. I used to tell my children, ‘God only loves the rich and famous. He only talks to people who have something to give Him not to poor, broken people like us.’

But when you and your team shared the story of Jesus with us, it felt like someone opened a door we never knew existed. We never knew there was a God who loves the poor. A God who came for people like us. A God who doesn’t care if we are broken, dirty or empty-handed. He came for us!”

This family was given a Treasure audio Bible after an outreach event. The son, clutching the Treasure to his chest said, “Mama, God talks to us now.” For the first time, they are able to hear God’s voice through the audio player. They shared, “It feels like He is sitting right here with us, speaking life into our hearts.”

In just three days after receiving the Treasure, the children stopped asking why they live in the dump. Instead, they ask, “Mama, when will we see Jesus?” The children, who once cried themselves to sleep, have now found joy in Christ! They know God sees them, speaks to them and loves them.

The gospel changes everything. It’s not just words; it’s life. It’s a joy. It’s freedom. Let’s go where no one else goes. Let’s bring light where there is darkness. Thank you!
