The Bridge of Grace Water Pump Mission

In April of 2023, the Bridge of Grace Mission in Pakistan adhered to the final command Jesus gave his Disciples in Matthew 28:19-20: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold I am with you always, to the end of the age."  


During this month, the Bridge of Grace team embarked on a lengthy 34-hour journey from Lahore to the province of Sindh to bring the Good News of Jesus to villages surrounding the cities of Tharparker & Hyderbad.  Throughout the villages, over 400 people heard the Gospel and gave their lives to Jesus.  


The journey did not come without hardships.  During the trip, the Bridge of Grace's team had their car break down on the middle of the road, far from any garage that could repair it.  However they were not about to let this deter them.  With the help of local villagers and supporters abroad, the team was able to locate a mechanic who traveled 15 km to repair their car so the team could continue their work.  

The Bridge of Grace team did not only come to share the Good News, they also brought gifts of Great Joy!  In the villages that the team visited, 10 water pumps were installed.  In the Sindh province of Pakistan, clean water is a precious commodity and some villagers had to journey over 25 km for the closest water source.  Now, these villagers will no longer have to make this perilous journey as they have their own source of water.  Many villagers were overjoyed by this gift!  

This Water Pump Mission was a huge success and it improved the lives of hundreds of people.  However, this mission took a big toll on the finances of Bridge of Grace.  The cost to install the 10 water pumps totaled $1500, the travel & lodging costs have been calculated at $750, and the unexpected car repairs  totaled $355.  These costs have seriously drained the accounts of Bridge of Grace in such a way that it may be unable to pay the monthly salaries the three elementary schools that they operate in the Punjab district. 

Bridge of Grace Elementary School of Gujranwala

These schools enable over 200 children whose families work as slaves in brick kilns to obtain a free education and require a monthly allowance of $2300 to remain in operation.  Providing these children with free school is the only thing preventing them from having to make bricks 16 hours a day (Link to Video).This is why we are humbly asking that donations be given to help to our schools through our GoFundMe page (Link to Charity).  Please help our mission.  We are changing the lives of so many people, but we need your help to keep doing this.  Each donation is tax deductible and helps keep a child out of slavery.

Hamas Invasion of Israel

The brutal invasion of Israel by Hamas caught the entire world by surprise.  Over the last few years Israel has become accustomed to turning back rocket attacks and occasional cross-border raids by Hamas terrorists, but nobody anticipated this brutal full-out invasion.  Already being dubbed as "Israel's 9/11," militants stormed across the Gaza border and attacked towns across southern Israel.  Already over 900 Israelis are confirmed dead, thousands more wounded, and over 100 hostages, including women & children, have been taken back to Gaza ( Video Footage of Massacres ).   Israeli Woman Taken Hostage by Hamas The deadliest massacre so far took place at the Nova Music Festival in the Negev Desert close to Urim, a Jewish community that lives close to the Gaza Strip.  At 6am on Oct. 7th, the attack on the festival began as rockets rained down and Hamas gunmen appeared and opened fire.  As of now over 260 Israelis are confirmed dead from this attack alone with a number o

The Plague of Jihad is all over the world.  The past few days has witnessed Israel suffer the most horrific attack that it has endured since the October War of 1973, yet for all of the senseless death, for all of the footage that we see of Hamas militants murdering Israelis in cold blood, many in the world are in fact celebrating this atrocity.   Hamas Supporters in Canada In Iran, crowds of Hamas supporters took to the streets to celebrate the slaughter of Israelis by Hamas while their government leaders lavished praise on the terrorists ( Link to Article ).  In the nation of Turkey, Hamas supporters crowded the streets of Istanbul chanting "Allahu Akbar" & "Khaybar Khaybar Ya Yahud" ( Link to Video ).  "Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud, jaish Muhammad soufa ya'oud" is the full version of the chant.  It translates to "Khaybar Khaybar or Jews, the Army of Muhammad will return."  For those unfamiliar with the context of this chant, Khaybar was the

Hamas and Their Child Soldier Training Camps

Image
For years the world has known that Hamas deliberately targets children for indoctrination and training to carry out terrorist missions.  They have camps throughout Gaza and other areas of the Middle East where children are taught to hate, & trained to kill.  These camps are often referred to as "Summer Youth Camps."  The titles sound harmless enough, but unlike the summer youth camps in the U.S. and other Western nations where children play games, do crafts, and in general, have fun, the Hamas "Summer Youth Camps" are nothing like this.  They're training camps, where children are trained in weapons handling, military drills, and are indoctrinated to "hate the Infidel," particularly Jews.   Link to Video On videos that have circulated across the online world, these children have openly confessed that they have come here for the purpose of learning to fight.  One such video surfaced on MEMRI with a child openly stating "We did not come here to e
