Pashtun, Southern in Afghanistan
Passionate is a word that well describes much about
the Pashtun tribes of Afghanistan. They are said to love or hate with
equal intensity, displaying fierce loyalty to friends, yet defending the
right of badal - revenge or blood feuds - where enemies are concerned.
Behavior expected without question includes hospitality and protection
for guests, provision of refuge to a fugitive, and acceptance of a
sincere offer of peace.Ministry Obstacles
Afghanistan is not hospitable to Christian ministry of any type. Access to the people is limited.
Outreach Ideas
Believers can minister to the physical and material needs of these people who have suffered much.
Pray for the followers of Christ
Pray for the few believers among the Pashtun, that they may grow in Christ and be zealous to know and serve him. Pray for their protection.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray for stability and peace in Afghanistan, for the government to be able to maintain order and an environment where people can live safely and productively.
Scripture Focus
"For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea." Habakkuk 2:14
