A Pakistani front-line worker says she witnessed more Bibles being distributed in 2025 and early 2026 than she has in many previous years. “We are now able to get into areas that have previously been totally restricted,” she said. She added that she’s very encouraged when she hears from Christians in prison who have received copies of God’s Word. “God’s plan is moving forward, and his Word is touching lives everywhere. Light expels darkness!” she said. But she also reported that her team has had to cancel some planned Bible distributions due to instability and conflict in the region. She asked for wisdom for the distribution teams to know where and when to deliver Bibles to those who need access to God’s Word.<\/p>\n
