On March 3, 2026, ICAN Trust conducted a Vision Sharing Session with seminary students at Zarephath Bible Seminary (ZBS) in partnership with Pakistan Partnership Initiative (PPI). The purpose of the session was to inspire and equip future church leaders to take an active role in addressing the growing challenge of drug abuse within the Christian community in Pakistan.
We are raising a generation of leaders committed not only to preaching the gospel but also to confronting real-life issues affecting our communities. The future Church must be spiritually strong, socially aware, and boldly engaged.
