Pastor Augustine Shadab experienced the Lord Jesus Christ as a personal savior in 1985 when he was seriously beaten by religious extremists but the Lord met him when he was dying on the road, Jesus saved him from death and extended his life to live more as a man of God. Lord has forgiven him and washed him with His precious blood, He poured His love & Spirit and made him a new man and Christ’s Ambassador for the present world.
In the same year, Pastor Augustine was been introduced to the Operation Mobilization Team through a brother in Christ. OM team is an evangelical team based in England and it works around the world as well as in Pakistan. OM moves as a traveling team, men's team, women's team, book shop team, etc. Pastor Augustine started his earliest ministerial work as an evangelist with OM and he evangelized three big provinces, Punjab, Sindh, and Northern Areas in Pakistan where they distributed thousands of Bibles & gospel packets among Non-Christians and shared about forgiveness and the love of God to them. Every day OM traveling team reaches shop to shop and door to door for evangelism, distributing gospel packets, and never misses any opportunity to share how the Lord has changed their lives. It was a great probation period for all OMers where the Holy Spirit polished them very well through strong resistance, jail, and being beaten by religious extremists many times.
Pastor Augustine completed his committed period with OM Team and left the team in December 1986 and got married in 1987 to a born-again woman Rubina (Late) and the Lord has blessed them with five beautiful daughters.
After many prayers and long conversations with the Lord, he shifted to Karachi in 1990 and started his first job in Karachi with UNHCR as a security officer and continue worked as an evangelist with many Churches, finally, God gave him a new shape in the year 2000, when he completed his pastoral education from Jesus Christ Foundation Ministry, Holland and ordained by Dr. Samuel Lee who is the founder and Chairman of the said ministry. He started to serve the Lord as a Pastor in 2007 after becoming successful in registering CAMP Ministry, which is based in Karachi, upon 2nd Corinthians chapter 05 and verse 20.
CAMP was started as a home cell Church, and the Lord has increased the number of CAMP members day by day, and continuously adding more and more every day.
Praise to the Lord, Hallelujah!
