Prayer Alert for Afghanistan as Country Faces First Democratic Transfer of Power"Afghanistan is such a critical country. It's so critical for the Gospel… [we need] a measure of protection for the Church, for the Christians there in Afghanistan. They're a very rough and hardy people, but they're weary and they're praying for some change." -Tom Doyle
In response, Mission Network News (MNN) is calling for a week of prayer leading up to the elections. On the critical nature of the country's first democratic transfer of power, E3 Partners' spokesman Tom Doyle said, "Afghanistan is such a critical country. It's so critical for the Gospel, with so many unreached people groups. The Taliban [wishes] to keep any kind of freedom away, and certainly that would include religious freedom." According to a MMN report, so far the Taliban have made sure bombings are a daily occurrence, but if the democratic process can go forward, and a moderate candidate is chosen as the country's next president, there could be a glimpse of hope for Christians. "In Afghanistan, they're never going to have religious freedom to the point where a Muslim is free to leave his religion and become a Jesus follower," said Doyle, referring to the country's near future. "What we're hoping for is just a measure of protection for the Church, for the Christians there in Afghanistan. They're a very rough and hardy people, but they're weary and they're praying for some change." Concludes the MMN report: "Will you join these Believers as they pray for a positive change in their nation? By sharing this story on social media, you can get your friends and church family to join in. A multitude of prayers is needed at this critical time. "As Afghanistan goes, so goes this whole Central Asia area," Doyle explains. "We pray that there’s a good, free election and someone moderate that cares about the country and the people will get elected." Pray for some measure of protection for Christians if a moderate candidate is chosen. Pray that the Gospel reaches every corner of the nation.

(Afghanistan)—Presidential elections are scheduled to take place in Afghanistan on Saturday, April 5th. As is too often the case, Middle East elections in particular are fraught with strife, and Afghanistan—where US troops are scheduled to completely withdraw by the end of the year—is no exception. Indeed, the Taliban has threatened attacks on anyone who dares to show up to vote at the polls. (Map via Google)
