Pastor Saqib Munawar is the Founder & Chairman of Christ for All Nations Ministries (CAN Ministries).  He was born April 14, 1979, in Lahore Pakistan.  He has three brothers and one sister.  He is engaged to a beautiful young woman named Sheeba Rehmat; and they will be married in February 2010, by the grace of almighty God.  Pastor Saqib’s father, Pastor Munawar Masih Nasir (late), was a soul-winning pastor; and he served God in the inner cities and especially among the Hindu people.  God used him for winning more than two thousand (2,000) Hindu people during his 40 years of pastoral ministry.  Pastor Saqib’s mother, named Mrs. Balquees Munawar, is a prayer warrior; and she supported her husband, and is now supporting his sons through her prayers and financial support.

Pastor Saqib Munawar gave his life over to God in the year 1995, and took water baptism in the same year.  And, by the grace of Almighty God, he was blessed with the baptism of the Holy Spirit in September 1996.  From that very day, he has been praying 12 hours a day, and God has granted him with different heavenly blessings – such as interpretation of the different tongues, healing, and winning lost souls to Christ.

Pastor Munawar began serving God by preaching with great passion in the same city, Lahore; along with his maternal uncle, Evangelist Sabir Rehmat, for three years, in order to obtain ministry experience.  After that, in the year 2000, he started Sunday
School work in the local church while waiting for God’s special calling for his ministerial work.  Then, after completing seminary, he joined Christ for Pakistan Ministries (CPM) as a full-time pastor.  Rt. Rev. Bishop Yaqub Paul and Evangelist Sabir Rehmat have taught him the theology, pastoral ethics, and ministry works, and put their hand upon his ordination as a full-time pastor.

In CPM, he was offered to perform the duties of Principal of Solid Rock Bible College.  He then served the College for two years as Principal, and trained many young leaders for evangelism.  However, God has blessed him that Rt. Rev. Bishop Yaqub Paul appointed him as a National coordinator for the Solid Rock Bible College’s Network in Pakistan.  There he got the opportunity of visiting all of Pakistan; and he succeeded in establishing new Bible Colleges and trained many leaders of leaders.

In the year 2007, God bestowed him with the vision of Christ for all Nations Ministries.  He started this ministry with only two co-workers; and now, in the year 2010, he has with him more than fifty (50) pastors from all across Pakistan.  God has allowed him to establish thirty-eight (38) churches in this relatively small time span.  He has put his entire effort into reaching to the out-reached people; and he intends to establish a church in every 10/40 Window Nation.
