Afghanistan
Pray for believers in Afghanistan: the Taliban’s return to power last year poses a real threat of more intense persecution. Recent reports suggest Taliban reprisals against those perceived to be allies of the West and the former Government.

Many people fled the Widho area in fear after the six Christians (see previous prayers) were killed. Please pray that government and security officials in Uganda will tighten security so Christians feel safe enough to return.

Pray for the families of six Christians in Widho, Lamu county, Kenya, who were killed recently by extremists (including suspected al-Shabaab militants from Somalia).
