Published September 26, 2011

The book launch of "Churches of Pakistan", was held on Monday at the British Deputy High Commission in Karachi. Authored by Dr. Safdar Ali Shah and Syed Javaid Kazi, the book is a compilation of photographs and text depicting the many churches standing in Pakistan today.

Churches from Karachi to Nathia Gali and in between are presented in the book. From steeples built in Victorian style to the Romanesque fashion of St. Lawrence’s church, the book showcases the evolution of architecture as well as documenting the spread and span of Christianity in Pakistan. - Text by Sara Faruqi and Photos by Nadir Siddiqui/Dawn.com
