Punjabi Zubor is an annual Psalm Festival in Karachi, Pakistan.

Psalms give a sense of God's presence

Rev. Eric Sarwar, a Presbyterian pastor in Pakistan, started a psalm competition in 2003 as a way to invite the next generation--with their love of modern music--into the rich heritage of singing the Psalms. "The Festival of Psalm Competition and Performing Arts in Worship" has been embraced by Pakistanis from all over the country, including many young people.
