History

Lahore Council of Churches 
The United Presbyterian Church of North America began missionary work in Pakistan in 1834 in the Ludhina region. A year after JC Lowrie, the first Presbyterian missionary in the country, moved from Ludhiana to Lahore. In 1849 John Newton and Charles Forman went to the same region to work as missionaries. Soon they extended their work to Rawalpindi. His efforts resulted in the founding of the Council of Churches of Lahore. In 1904, long before other Presbyterian communities, the Council of Churches of Lahore, formerly part of the United Presbyterian Church, was absorbed into the United Church of North India. United Presbyterian Church of Pakistan 
 
In 1855 the United Presbyterian Mission of the United States opened work in Lahore with Andrew Gordon as a missionary; two years later he established a mission station in Sialkot, where he was joined by other missionaries. Schools and an orphanage were opened by the missionary group. In 1859 the Presbytery of Sialkot was formed. The "Sialkot Conventions", promoted by the church, have been held since 1904 and are recognized as fundamental to the strengthening and dissemination of the Christian faith in Pakistan. The Psalms used in the Sialkot Hymnbookwith Convention, as well as hymns in Punjabi and Urdu as Indian songs are widely used in all Protestant churches in the country. The church grew, and other presbyteries were established. In 1893 the Synod of Punjab (SP) was formed as one of the synods of the United Presbyterian Church of North America. The SP founded the Gujiranwala Seminary, which became a merged seminary in 1954, which went on to serve for the training of ministers of various Protestant denominations in Pakistan such as the Church of Pakistan and Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church in Pakistan. The same synod became autonomous in 1961 forming the United Presbyterian Church of Pakistan (1855-1993). In 1968, as a result of the movement opposing McIntire's Liberal Theology, part of the members split off and founded the United Presbyterian Church of Pakistan. In contrast the United Presbyterian Church of Pakistan (1855-1993) became administratively independent of the North American church. Fusion
