ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — June 2026 (TNS)— Archbishop Dr. Charles Agyinasare, Founder and Prelate of Perez Chapel International and Chancellor of Perez University College, has successfully concluded a landmark missionary tour across Pakistan, culminating in a high-level diplomatic visit to the Ghana Consulate in Islamabad.
The 2026 mission marks a significant milestone in nearly two decades of ministry engagement by Dr. Agyinasare, who made history in 2006 as the first Black spiritual leader to conduct large-scale, open-air Gospel campaigns in Pakistan during a period of intense regional volatility.
A Diplomatic Bridge for Education and Commerce
During his visit to the Ghana Consulate, Archbishop Agyinasare was received by Vice Consul Mr. Omar Butt on behalf of His Excellency Dr. Shahid Butt, the Honorary Consul of Ghana to Pakistan. Conversations focused on deepening bilateral goodwill and fostering concrete educational and economic partnerships between Ghana and Pakistan.
Key strategic initiatives discussed during the diplomatic visit include:
- The Establishment of Perez Academy:Exploring platforms to launch Perez Academy in Pakistan, focusing on quality education, values-based learning, and youth empowerment.
- Transnational Business Synergies:Facilitating trade partnerships by introducing Ghanaian investors to Pakistani business networks across agriculture, information technology, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, textiles, mining, and energy cooperation.
Impact of the 2026 Mission
The intensive June 2026 itinerary spanned multiple major cities, including Hyderabad, Karachi, Gujranwala, Lahore, and Islamabad. Through the signature IGNITE Ministers Conferences and Festival of Miracles campaigns, the mission empowered thousands of local pastors, Christian leaders, and believers.
Financed independently by Dr. Agyinasare and his Ghanaian ministry partners, the outreach included the philanthropic distribution of 10,000 copies of his foundational book series, Rooted and Built Up in Him (Volumes 1-4). Commenting on the financial footprint of these global outreaches, which totals hundreds of thousands of U.S. dollars over the years, the Archbishop emphasized that he views the expenditure not as a sacrifice, but as an eternal investment in societal transformation.
Tributes from Pakistani Christian Leadership
Prominent national leaders expressed deep gratitude for the global leader’s long-standing dedication to the region:
- Pastor Nasir Paul(Host of the historic 2006 campaign): “Archbishop, you were the first black person to hold a mass open air campaign in Pakistan with multiple thousands in attendance. Thank you for showing it is possible and showing to the world how open and tolerant Pakistan is.”
- Pastor Asher Mansha(Chairman, Christ Holiness Church & Shine Star TV Network): “Baba Agyinasare, you have become a father to the Church at large in Pakistan… Through your sacrifice and leadership, you are building a lasting legacy that will impact generations.”
- Pastor Shakeel Bhatti(National Overseer, Perez Chapel International, Pakistan): “We highly appreciate your love for the nation of Pakistan. The conference we did in Gujranwala was very insightful and really equipped our people to serve our generation better.”
The Road Ahead: A Sustained Six-Year Vision (2027–2032)
Looking toward the future, Dr. Agyinasare announced a comprehensive six-year strategic commitment to Pakistan starting in 2027. This annual blueprint aims to build a self-sustaining momentum for future generations through several core tracks:
- Spiritual & Humanitarian Expansion:Scaling the IGNITE Conferences and open-air campaigns into newly targeted sub-regions while accelerating local church planting.
- Institutional Leadership Training:Deploying the Agyinasare Leadership Institute to equip professionals, church executives, and emerging youth leaders with transformational governance skills.
