Global Mission Awareness has been in contact with URI in Pakistan even before the URI Charter signing. Members participated in the “Journey for Peace” from Karachi to Khyber to welcome the new millennium, IDP celebrations, International Women’s Day, Rural Women Day, Interreligious Christmas celebrations and Iftar parties as well. By becoming a Cooperation Circle (CC), Global Mission Awareness plans to be in contact with other URI CCs around the globe to learn more about improving the environment, creating space for religious harmony in society and human development. Global Mission Awareness and 7Star TV organized the 15th Annual Grand Christmas Rejoicing Program on the December 13, 2013, in Lahore, Pakistan. This program was very unique in that it was an interfaith Christmas celebration. Many Muslim and Hindu religious leaders participated along with the National Muslim Famous TV & Radio Artistes, who rejoiced in Christmas songs. CC members are also planning to open a Music Academy and College for Youth.
