Collection: Pray4 Afghanistan

Praying for Afghanistan is crucial for Christians because the country is facing immense challenges, including political instability, persecution of religious minorities, and a humanitarian crisis.

The Christian community in Afghanistan, though small and often underground, needs prayer for protection, courage, and the ability to witness in a hostile environment.

Additionally, prayer is essential for the broader population, many of whom are suffering from poverty, violence, and a lack of basic human rights. Through prayer, Christians can stand in solidarity with the Afghan people, asking God to bring peace, justice, and hope to a nation in deep need.
