People attending such forums highlight them on social media, reaching millions,\u201d he told EWTN News at the sidelines of the program, timed with International Women\u2019s Day on March 8.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe combined meals and prayer services have helped curb trends of church attacks that followed U.S. wars in Muslim countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pakistani Christians have faced multiple terrorist attacks since October 2001, after the United States \u2014 seen by many Pakistani Muslims as a Christian nation \u2014 launched its military campaign in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a bitter past. Churches and Christian settlements were considered soft targets. The ongoing conflicts are not crusades; they are wars of interest,\u201d Channan said.<\/p>\n<h2>Interfaith meals continue despite unrest<\/h2>\n<p>Interfaith gatherings continued this year even as protests against U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran left 26 dead in Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>Church leaders joined clerics in prayers for peace and shared meals at mosques, church premises, and hotels across six dioceses and one apostolic vicariate, as Middle East air travel disruption and rising fuel prices added regional tension.<\/p>\n<p>Many Pakistanis view the United States and Western Europe as Christian nations, and some militant groups target local Christians as linked to these \u201cChristian countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Communal tensions have also erupted locally. In May 2024, a mob attacked 74-year-old Christian Nazir Masih over alleged blasphemy in Sargodha. He later died of his injuries. In August 2023, violence in Jaranwala destroyed 26 churches and 80 Christian homes following allegations of Quran desecration.<\/p>\n<p>In a Feb. 17 message, Archbishop Joseph Arshad of Rawalpindi-Islamabad invited Christians and Muslims to offer special prayers for peace as Lent and Ramadan coincided this year. He encouraged people of both faiths \u201cto visit one another, exchange greetings with respect, and unite in serving vulnerable segments of society.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Joint events across Pakistan<\/h2>\n<p>In Multan, over 82 participants attended a Feb. 28 iftar jointly organized by the Catholic Commission for Inter-Religious Dialogue and Ecumenism; Saiban-e-Pakistan, a state peace initiative; and the Centre of Excellence on Countering Violent Extremism.<\/p>\n<p>A day earlier in Lahore, Channan and four Catholic priests attended the fast-breaking event at the Badshahi Mosque, the country\u2019s second-largest mosque. He presented a framed photo of Abdul Khabeer Azad, the mosque\u2019s \u201ckhateeb\u201d (prayer leader), who met Pope Leo XIV in October 2025 at the \u201cChristian-Muslim Dialogue and Daring Peace\u201d conference in Rome organized by the Community of Sant\u2019Egidio.<\/p>\n<figure><figcaption>Guests share the interfaith iftar meal at the Dominican Peace Center in Lahore on March 8, 2026. | Credit: Kamran Chaudhry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Among 120 guests at the Dominican iftar was Muslim speaker Shehzad Qaiser. The event, held in collaboration with groups including the Seventh-day Adventist Church, highlighted ongoing social challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The head of external affairs at Sundas Foundation, which supports patients with blood disorders, agreed that Christians face discrimination in some offices and some Muslims refuse the food prepared by Christians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is very important to share our common practices, joys, and sorrows. Religious leaders have the duty to raise awareness. Sadly some mistake local Christians as \u2018kafir\u2019 (infidels),\u201d Qaiser said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring Ramadan, people distribute free meals to everyone without asking their religion. Blood donors don\u2019t discriminate either. This is the real spirit of Ramadan and Lent.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LAHORE, Pakistan \u2014 White bedsheets for Muslim worshippers were laid on the grassy lawn outside the Dominican Peace Center in Punjab an hour before the annual interfaith iftar \u2014 the fast-breaking meal during Ramadan.
