If you’re like me, you’re heartbroken over what’s happening in Afghanistan. Over the weekend, I watched in horror as fighters from the Taliban took the reins of the Presidential Palace and Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani fled the country.
Our field is closely monitoring the situation in Afghanistan and again is asking for urgent prayer for the country and the small group of secret believers there who follow Jesus in the country ranked No. 2 on Open Doors’ 2021 World Watch List
“It’s a heartbreaking day for the citizens of Afghanistan and an even more dangerous time to be a Christian,” says Brother Samuel, Open Doors Field Director for Asia.
In the report below, he and our team of experts share what’s happening inside the country and again give us specific ways we can pray as the Taliban takes hold and begins to enforce their strict interpretation of Shariah (Islamic) law.
Samuel tells us that the vulnerability for secret believers in Afghanistan—our family— has increased tenfold.
Will you stop and pray with us? While the situation is dark and devastating, as God’s people, we have been called to “look to the Lord and His strength” (1 Chron. 16:9).
Right now, more than ever, Afghanistan needs urgent prayer from the global Church.

The following request applies to any of the christian ministries that are currently getting visitors from my blog:
I am currently blogging: https://webmaster220.blogspot.com I would like to place a banner on the right side of my home page that promotes your ministry If I do that and it helps your ministry grow and expand do you have a suggestion as to what type of commission or contribution could be paid to my ministry. The reason I am saying that is there are a lot of ministries out there that are buying advertising space online and yours could be one of them for all I know. I have been an affiliate marketer for years on my blog but no commissions have ever been earned even though I am doing everything required to be done to earn the commissions. My blog readers are just not interested in spending any money on any of the goods or services discussed in my banner ads and text links. To reply, use the contact form below this paragraph Thanks, Rick Livermore - Webmaster220
