In many hard-to reach nations, it is tough to know where to give where your donations will be used for the greatest impact for the truly needy.
I have personally vetted Waqas for about a year now (writing this Oct 23, 2024) and I understand this man’s heart and service to the poorest of the poor, both children and widows. Waqas travels into an are carrying gifts of food, bibles, supplies, or what is most needed.
I think we all know that Christianity is the greatest giver of charity, relief, support and encouragement, and elevation of standard of living. That is so true in this case, where in a vast Muslim-majority population, his work is threatened, and he literally risks life and limb to help others.
One of the greatest areas of need in Pakistan for the poor is clean water. Children walk miles to gather water for their families, in containers that come back only partially full because of the sloshing, jarring journey home. Not only do they need local access to water for their homes, but not having CLEAN water to drink is a major cause of sickness and disease.
Here at Reclaimed.US, we hope to gain not only regular supporters for Waqas, but funds to complete a clean-water project for each of the communities he visits.
Please join us in blessing the truly needy in Pakistan with the most basic necessity that we take for granted, and change the living condition of these precious people.
Here are his own words, when I asked him to describe his efforts for this Reclaimed page:

I am reaching out to you with a heavy heart as our city and country are facing a dangerous crisis right now. The air pollution levels have reached disastrous heights, and the air we breathe is becoming harmful to our health. It has become so bad that I cannot travel, nor can I continue with my Evangelism work or lead the Sunday school service, as I rely on public transportation and the air quality is unsafe.
Our state government is also considering a 4-day lockdown to help control the situation, but we know that this will only be a temporary solution. The pollution is affecting many people in our community, and it’s a serious concern for everyone.
I am asking for your prayers. Please pray for our city, for protection and healing from this polluted air. Pray for those suffering from health issues due to the air quality and for the wisdom and guidance of our leaders to address this crisis effectively. Also, please pray for me, that God will keep me safe and give me strength during this challenging time.
Let’s come together in prayer for our city, our country, and everyone affected.
May the peace of God and the Islam of our Savior Jesus Christ reach you.
This woman is a member of my church and her child has been very ill for two days. Due to high smog due to polluted air, her child is having difficulty breathing. She was taken to a government hospital, but no doctor was willing to see her children. And there is almost no medicine. The doctor’s fees in private hospitals are too high which it cannot afford. She brought this child to me to pray for her and we prayed for this child together. I request you all to remember this child in your prayers so that all chest infections and breathing difficulties go away. May the Lord Jesus Christ create a great testimony in the life of this mother in the life of this child.
Smog and people have become too much in our city and our honey is on the top of the most polluted cities in the world. It is causing respiratory diseases. We request everyone to help us, we want to set up a free medical camp and give free masks and googles and medicines. We request you all to pray.
