Front-Line Workers in Pakistan report that the level of brutality against Christians in the country has been increasing in recent months. “In my 65 years, I have never seen these kinds of things in Pakistan,” said one Worker.
On 24 March 2025, a Muslim in the Punjab province attacked a Christian coworker with a paper cutter, slashing his throat. The Christian barely survived and is currently unable to speak.
On 27 March 2025, a Christian couple was stopped in the Faisalabad district and robbed at gunpoint by two masked men. When the men learned the couple were Christians, they tied up the husband and sexually assaulted his wife. Local police have arrested the attackers in both incidents.
Pakistani Christians request prayer:
for the survivors’ recovery.
for justice to be done.
for courage to stand firm in their faith amid intense persecution.
