Pray for missionaries

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Country Families : One Thread

As we pray today for our country and the people of Afghanistan, we need to also remember the German and American missionaries being held by the Taliban. I heard they released the British journalist they were holding, but no word about the missionaries. These people could easily give their lives for God over there. They are very young, I think the American girls are 25 and 29. My parents have gone to Morroco and Cuba to teach"English" and use the Bible to do so. I always prayed for them, but don't think I ever fully appreciated the risks they were taking. Just remember to lift these Christians and their families up when you pray.

Thanks, Ivy for remembering. One of the women is from this area and our local radio station has been trying to keep people informed about her and the others.
