Bishop Azad Marshall, the Church of Pakistan’s new moderator, says that despite a recent setback, he remains undaunted in his efforts to secure legal protection against the forced conversion to Islam and marriage of Christian girls.
The Rt. Rev. Azad Marshall, a leader in theological education with broad experience in the wider Anglican Communion, was elected to a three-year term as moderator of the Church of Pakistan at its triennial synod on March 14. He began his ministry by addressing the deep concerns many church members have for safety, living in a country recently ranked as the world’s most violent for Christians.
