Report from Rehan
Greetings and Shalom in the name of the Sovereign Lord.
John 20:21
As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.
BOTH SENDING AND GOING ARE IMPORTANT.
Sending and going are both important, as the Bible says in Romans 10:13-15. This is how the Body of Christ works. They call on the Body to function together for one purpose: to share the Gospel with those who are not yet part of God's family and disciples those who are part of the family. If one person plants the seed and another person provides it, they will both benefit from the harvest. Some people can go, but others can send.
Because God wants us to serve him, we are ready to go. We are very joyful that you are helping us with our work in Pakistan. God has been very gracious, and I want to share some Praise report with you.

Refuting Arabic Mindset. English.

Online Discipleship class.
We have started the discipleship classes with our four new believers and meet once a week. From the start of May, we will look at the Gospel of John.
Pakistan Trip:
We had a great time in Pakistan in January and will be going back in June. A group of 43 Pakistani Christians learned how to share their faith with Muslims. Both Responder Ashfaq and Muhammad Zubair helped me and learning how to use media more effectively.
Testimony: Pastor Sahil Abbas.
I had done a 3-year diploma in Biblical Theology, but I was not given the opportunity to ask questions or encourage others to teach. Here, in the very first seminar, I felt very comfortable and realized that becoming a facilitator was possible and the best way to serve others and reach out to Muslims.
Testimony: Rabecca Waqas.
It was a great opportunity for me to share what was on my heart and also to learn from other members through their experiences. This was a unique method because learning through discussion, Parable, stories and real-life application makes the process enjoyable and meaningful compared to passive listening. Illustration, parable & stories booklet is very contextualized and good way to help Muslims to know the truth here in Pakistan.
A thank you message.
We are very grateful to God for letting us serve Him. We are also thankful for your prayers and the financial support.
Prayer Request:
1: Please pray for the safety of our new believers as they go out and try to share the Gospel with others.
2: Ask God to help our responders, Ashfaq and Zubair, to show love and wisdom to Muslims in their conversation.
3: Please pray for me while I am busy writing a book on how to help people with an Arabic mindset to see the truth.
I've attached some pictures.
Many Blessings
Rehan
