Azeem's Story


Azeem was born and raised in Pakistan. Having been left an orphan at the age of 10, Azeem experienced so much suffering as a child. He was thrown on the street with no food and only the clothes he was wearing. He said then he truly came to know God as His heavenly father. He made up his mind at this early stage in his life, that as God enabled him, he would help other children left as orphans and needy people. Muslims told him that if he would only accept Islam his troubles would be over. 

At one time, he was told by Muslims at his job that they would pay him a large amount of money if he would accept Islam. He knew that Christ his Savior was more valuable than anything in this world. In all of these things, he would not deny Jesus.

Azeem surrendered his life to Jesus Christ at the age of 16 and was baptized the same year. He went to Bible school and after graduation went into full time ministry. Azeem can speak four languages fluently. He has traveled to the remotest areas of Pakistan bringing hope to the broken hearted. He has brought relief to flood and earthquake areas and Christian villages that were destroyed by radical Islamists. Azeem knows firsthand what it means to suffer for your faith. His own mother's home village was burned to the ground by angry mobs because it is one of the few Christian villages in Pakistan.

Azeem and Clara have been happily married since 2012. They have three children whom they homeschool in order that they can travel together in the ministry. 

 Having lived in one of the most extreme and dangerous countries in the world for Christians, Azeem has a powerful testimony to share with your Church or small group. He is available for in person and online meetings.
