Relation of Opportunity to National Church and/or Long-term Goals
While the progress in the work has been encouraging, many obstacles remain. Christian workers face visa restrictions, health hazards, and various pressures from a lack of law and order. In spite of these serious obstacles, people are coming to faith in Christ and growing in Him. WorldVenture has been in Pakistan since 1954.
Additional Trip Information
Mission Trip Offered By WorldVenture
Billions of people don’t know Jesus. We’re not okay with that.
More than words, they are a reminder on the wall of our main office of why we do what we do. Since 1943, God has used thousands of WorldVenture workers and partners to impact millions with the good news.
We plant churches, build clinics, educate children, train leaders, provide disaster relief, combat injustice, foster the arts, and serve the poor with economic development…in Jesus name and to make disciples.
We recruit, train, and send disciples of Jesus throughout the world who sense Gods call to give their lives to share the gospel with people who have yet to hear it. And we partner with multitudes of Christ-following disciples in engaging the world for gospel impact.
