The work continues in Punjab under the leadership of Mehboob, Irfan, and Adnan, all of whom held end of year Christmas programs and celebrations, teaching about the truths and joys of Jesus' birth and the purpose of his taking on flesh and living among men and women on earth.

They continued the lessons into the new year teaching more about the reason Jesus came: To offer forgiveness of sins and eternal salvation to all who would believe.

The Punjab team expresses thanks to all who are part of Reach the Nations Ministries because the support and training they receive through RTN enables them to continue to spread the Gospel and train believers to be true disciples of Jesus.


Pray for these men and for those who yet need to hear the good news of Jesus' coming.


"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek." - Romans 1:16

Good news! When Peter Negron was recently in Pakistan, he was able to visit a new location for expansion of the literacy program Reach the Nations is sponsoring in Islamabad.

It was hard to find through the dark streets, but, finally they saw students behind a brightly lit window.

The new teacher is Waris George and is shown here with Peter. Waris is the pastor of the church where the class will meet, and he has been trained specifically in the teaching of basic literacy skills to Urdu speaking people.

He will be assisted by the gentleman at the podium (gray suit with black turtleneck) who has a good command of the English language and will be able to provide reports to RTN of the progress of the students.

Several students were in attendance who have pre-enrolled for the class which will begin within a couple of weeks. Peter reports that they are excited to have the chance to learn to read, write, and do basic math - a brand new opportunity for most of them.

Peter was able to share a message from the Word of God with Pastor Babar from Prayer Tower Church translating.

Pray for these students and others who will join them and pray for the teachers as they share not only skills, but also truths about knowing and following Christ.


“UntiI I come, give attention to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation and teaching.” - 1 Timothy 4:13

Pastor Peter Negron, from Reach the Nations, is ministering in these days in Islamabad.

The pastor of this church, shown above, has started this new church in an area of Islamabad where the need is great. Manzoor Masih, also from RTN, is seated at the far right. Pastor Peter is next to him at the table.

The pastor of the church is a former student of Pastor Babar, a friend of RTN and pastor of Prayer Tower Church where Peter also ministered.

Pastor Babar, on the left, served as the translator for Peter at Prayer Tower Church.

Pastor Peter was welcomed, Pakistani-style, as an honored guest.

And he preached God's Word with love and power.

And, after the service, a celebratory picnic!


Please pray for Peter as he continues his ministry in Islamabad and surrounding towns this week and for Gary as he teaches in Karachi.


"First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people . . ." - 1 Timothy 2:1
