Release International Prayer Shields, Afghanistan, Viet Nam

Afghanistan

Many Afghan Christians are fleeing to Pakistan – but here too the Islamist extremists have a strong presence. Ask God to protect and provide for them.

Afghanistan

Christians in Afghanistan, a tiny minority, are said to be fearful of further persecution. Christians already risked betrayal, even from relatives, before the Taliban came to power. Ask God to protect His people in this troubled nation.

Afghanistan

Pray for the Christian community in Afghanistan after the recent Taliban takeover. It is expected that extremists across the region will become emboldened, leading to an increase in persecution of the church.

Vietnam

Pray for wisdom and direction for Christian leaders (see yesterday’s prayer) throughout the country as they respond to this wave of opposition in Vietnam.

Vietnam

Vietnam’s evangelical community has faced nationwide opposition after the media focus on Pastor Vo’s church (yesterday’s prayer). Pray that Vietnamese people will recognize the political agenda behind this attempt to smear the church’s name.

Vietnam

Pray for an evangelical church in Ho Chi Minh City, which officials blamed for a local outbreak of Covid. Pastor Vo Xuan Loan, who was hospitalised with Covid along with her husband and two children, was publicly accused of spreading the virus after making a trip to Hanoi.
