Kashmir

kashmirflagKASHMIR

300,000 killed. 800,000 refugees

There is considerable interest among Kashmiris and response has been good to advertisements placed in newspapers offering correspondence courses and follow up ministries.

Country Profile

Population:
3.5 million
Capital City:
Srinagar
CLIMATE:
There are the hot plains of the Jammu Province and coldest dry tableland of Ladakh.
Religions:
Muslim 95%; Hindu 4%; Christian (less than 1%)
Languages:
107
WHAT WE DO
This projects aims to help supply funds to provide the correspondence courses. A number have come to the Lord through this means. Some progress into fulltime leadership training for the Kashmiri church. Understanding the nature of the work in Kashmir, this is a not a project where regular detailed updates are able to be given. In recent decades evangelists from other parts of India have attempted to reach the Kashmiris. Many returned to their homes after being beaten. In some cases they were killed and were returned in a coffin. Because of the opposition many have endured, the Kashmiris gained a reputation for being strongly resistant to the Gospel.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
Cost: £1 for a full set of correspondence course material. £30 a month provides for costs for a full time team member to continue working. £200 covers the cost of providing a full week of follow-up seminars and travel in Delhi. Give to Kashmir ministries here.
PRAY FOR

The four million Muslims living in Kashmir are among the most unreached and unevangelised people groups on earth. Pray for those who have been saved. This is a huge step for them to take. Pray for grace to persevere.

its very unfortunate that some people of kashmir are brain washed and forced to accept christianity,,,,,,,,,,,,,, islam is a compelete religion which guides to peace and prospority of both the worlds and condems immoral inhumane conpts , qurans teaches human values,, the seerah (life) of prophet muhammad sallahu alyhi wasalam) is a clear example to fallaw.isalam teaches rightts of neighbours, the rights of parents, the rights of children the rights of teachers even the rights of animals..... how beaitiful islam is,,the concept of brotherhood, the concept of forgiving, the concept of helping poor( and the methon of zakaat),, the concept of sacrifice, the concept of prayeing sallah in rows(saaff where black and white,, rich and poor are touching shoulder with shoulder).. the cocept of mercyfullness and forgiveness, are indeed mercy and the best way a human can fallow.......... indeed islam is a divine religion,

has conversion to any other religion a cut off date
remember kashmir was wholly hindu /buddhist not long ago
all kashmiris are converts why scared of reconverting to any other religion .
dont blame the ills of society on the followers of one religion who are not even 0-00001 percent of the population .
get real dont shy away from facts
