Praise God that when the Taliban asked one state governor in Afghanistan to take action against Christians but provided no proof of their alleged misdeeds, the governor threatened to prosecute the Taliban if they presented groundless accusations again.

Afghan Christians continue to face persecution in the form of threats, discrimination and occasionally abductions. In some areas, they face opposition from local Taliban. Ask God to strengthen His church in Afghanistan.
