UPDATE: In AFGHANISTAN, Muslims have shut down two church-based aid organizations after a TV network showed Afghani Christians being baptized and praying. The TV station has no evidence that the church-based aid organizations were connected with the baptism. Also, university students are demanding that the government expel foreigners accused of proselytizing.

Pray that Christians will be able to continue to work in the country. “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.”
