Hello to all of our friends from Christians Schools of Pakistan. We are now approaching 10,000 in number and have a tremendous amount of views each day. Your interest and viewer ship is important in keeping the world
updated on the plight of Christians Schools of Pakistan and on keeping up with issues facing the Christians in many other parts of the world that receive little press. With this being said we are still an active ministry which is trying to use our connections to better the position of our community in the world and Pakistan. In Pakistan it is very common for Christians to be relegated to work in the least desirable fields. Among many jobs the most common are cleaning people’s private residences and collecting and disposing of garbage. There are several reasons this is so but one of the most obvious reasons is that the Christian community in Pakistan cannot afford to educate itself. Education is expensive and the Christian community lacks the resources to pay for a proper education. The inability to access a better education causes Christians to hand down these bad jobs to their children and perpetuate a negative cycle. We as members of the Christian community in Pakistan can confidently say that we are in the highest of spirits as there is nothing in this life worth having more than the love and redemption brought to us by Jesus Christ. If it was necessary that we collect trash and clean houses to be in the embrace of our Lord then we would do so with a smile from ear to ear and warmth in our hearts. However, we do not believe that this is mandated or desired by God and to help educate our children we ultimately plan to build and maintain schools for our community. Though we have worked and set aside money for the acquisition of land, construction of a building, and staffing of our first school we are as of yet far short of our goal. Building Rent
2. 100 Chairs “one Time”
3. Teachers Salary
4. Electricity, water and Gas bills
5. Copies and books
6. Uniforms
[Things necessary to open the school for the first 6 months]
The task of raising this money is left up to us and most importantly to the will of the Lord. We are confident in our abilities to raise the money to make life better for the children of our brothers and sisters in Christ in Pakistan. We can and will do it with God’s help and so we have decided to ask our friends in our Facebook community for help. As you can see with our list of expenses the amount though large is not insurmountable. 100% of the money donated will go to the construction and running of a school for a community who desperately needs it. Updates on how much money has been raised, how it has been allocated, and photos of the progress will be shown through the page. On the Christians Schools of Pakistan page there will be a bar indicating how much money has been raised and the final amount necessary to complete the school. With the amount of friends we currently have, if 1 in every 19 friends of the page donated the equivalent of five American dollars we would meet our goal with ease. If anyone were to give more, than even fewer donations would be necessary. Regardless of what you decide to do we will be not only fine, but we will be great. We will be great because we have Jesus Christ in our hearts and that is infinitely more important than any other thing in life. Please keep praying for us, for the Christian community at large, for your own relationship with Christ, and for the whole Earth. We are the salt of the Earth and we are desperately needed by this dark place. With love as your brothers and sisters in Christ,
