Some of them are our own

In Pakistan, Christians are less than two percent of the population. Poverty forces them to borrow from loan sharks and predators who own the brick kilns. A medical bill or a wedding becomes a debt that traps entire bloodlines. When a father dies, the debt passes to his son. Whole families are forced to make bricks every day. They are family.

“Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” Psalm 82:3–4
No strings, and we mean it

From pastors who have rescued

“Setting a family free from the brick kilns of Pakistan showed me what it looks like when the love of Jesus becomes freedom you can see and touch.”

Pastor IsaacFoley, Alabama

“I was not prepared for what I saw when we pulled into the first brick factory. A beautiful three year old girl making bricks beside her father. Knowing that purchasing her freedom would forever change her life has forever changed my life.”

Pastor JimDagsboro, Delaware

“I’ll never forget the image of what happened when one of the first families that we set free in Pakistan were told, ‘This is a good day for you; you don’t ever have to come back here again. You are free.’ The husband fell into Lee’s chest, hugging and weeping uncontrollably.”
