Pakistan
By faith we look to God:
- To see strong Punjabi and other ethnic churches actively established and sacrificially involved in missions within Pakistan and beyond.
- To partner with these churches to see equally strong churches established amongst peoples with the Gospel.
- To encourage and support Christian educators in raising educational standards for children and young people.
- To see poor and marginalised families better integrated into society.
- To enable ethnic groups to receive education and medical assistance.
- To see workers from newer sending contexts become established in effective ministry in Pakistan.

Come and Serve
Ingessena and Least Reached
This ministry proceeds from our conviction that no one should live and die without having a chance to hear, understand, and believe the gospel. Our aim is to introduce people to Christ.
Youth Workers Toolkit
SIM Kenya is preparing a training book set to equip youth leaders across East Africa to reach young people more effectively.
Sports Friends Kenya
Convinced that no one should live and die without hearing God’s good news, SIM Sports Friends Kenya are making disciples through sports.
Life Challenge Mission to Muslims
Life Challenge is uniquely focused and passionately committed to motivate, train and equip the Church to present the gospel to Muslims. Do you have a vision to equip the African church to reach Muslims for Christ?
Theological and Missional Education
We serve and equip churches for mission through theological and missiological education, working to see biblically grounded, spiritually mature church leaders equipping the Body of Christ to reach and disciple those living without Him.
Children's and Youth Ministry
The population of Botswana has a large proportion of young people, and there is great opportunity to reach them through sports ministry, schools work, early childhood development centres and mental health support.
Highest Honour / S.H.I.N.E. Africa Discipleship and Counselling
'Highest Honour' and 'S.H.I.N.E. Africa' desire to fill the current gap in training and materials that can bring deep heart-transforming biblical discipleship in African shame-oriented contexts.
Theological and Medical Training
In Botswana, theological and medical training are both areas where mission workers can help to support existing structures, bringing valuable Christian understanding and knowledge.
Remote Area Dweller Ministry
The San are considered to have the oldest culture in the world. Our aim is to complete the Bible translation and oral translation of Bible stories into the San language of !Xoon.
Mobilisation and Evangelism
In order to take the message of Christ to the least-reached in Botswana and around the world, we are currently focusing on the mobilisation of local Christians for mission work, evangelism to Asian expatriate workers, and the establishment of a Christian resource centre.
Mobilisation for Christ's Global Mission
We want to mobilise more people, prayer, and funds for Christ’s global mission, especially to those who live and die without Christ in South Asia.
Radio Hope

Church Leadership Training
Train servant leaders who love the Lord Jesus and who are competent in various ministry skills.
Communities where Christ is least known
Quetta Hazara
Believed to be of Mongol descent, the Quetta Hazara are mainly Shia Muslims. They have suffered greatly from terrorist attacks. Generally hard-working, they place a greater importance on education than other Muslim communities do. Some have come to faith. Praise God that some Pakistani Christians reach out to this community, which is currently difficult for SIM workers to visit.
Marwari Bhil and Mengwal
Predominately Hindu subsistence farmers with poor social standing, the Marwari Bhil and Mengwal people have limited access to education, health facilities, and water. SIM has worked with these groups since the 1960s, and is training leaders for small house churches, which have grown significantly in recent years. However, in vast areas, people have not heard of Jesus Christ.
The Gypsies of Lahore
The Gypsies often live on the edge of society in tents, and make a living collecting rubbish. Many Gypsy parents do not want to send their children to school, because they prefer for them to earn money for the family. Now, through SIM's partner ministry, many young people are attending Sunday school and learning God's Word.
