Pray for Afghanistan
Join us in prayer for Taliban-governed Afghanistan
All BMS World Mission workers in Afghanistan have now left the country.
The Taliban has taken control of Afghanistan in a ten-day advance following the withdrawal of US and other foreign troops in June and July. We have evacuated all BMS workers in Afghanistan from the country. Please continue to pray for our Afghan partner at this time, as we actively explore how we can respond and meet the needs of people in Afghanistan.
BMS World Mission has worked in Afghanistan since 1997, partnering with organisations that serve the people of Afghanistan through training and capacity strengthening. Areas of work include community development, mental health support, agricultural training and palliative care.
Please pray:
- For wisdom for NGOs and charitable bodies working within Afghanistan, as they seek to support the communities they work with through this incredibly difficult time
- For BMS workers who have left the country, and seek to continue their vital work remotely
- For BMS’ commitment to the nation of Afghanistan, and for discussions taking place as to how best to shape an ongoing response to an ever-changing situation
- For strength for people in Afghanistan now feeling under threat and worrying for their futures, and for protection for those who feel forced to leave the country or to move their families to a safer region
- For lasting peace and stability to be found in the nation of Afghanistan
