Story number 2 for 25 Oct 2001

(Afghanistan)–Next, Christians are being asked to pray for the people of Afghanistan, many of whom have never heard the Gospel. Operation World indicates that of the 10 largest people groups, only four have Scripture portions available in their language. The Taimanis, one of the largest people groups, have no Bible, the Jesus Film or Christian radio in their mother tongue. Southern Baptist International Mission Board is collecting funds for the relief effort with the hopes of sharing Christ’s love. Every designated donation will be used for Afghan relief.
