Remember in your prayers to also keep praying about two other courageous Americans -- the two women who were in Afghanistan providing humanitarian aid through Shelter Now International. They are now jailed, having been accused of sharing their faith. They and all the accused Christians need our prayers. Even their trial is now delayed. Those trying to help them are facing great difficulties even getting to them. The Taliban previously indicated foreigners would only face jail and expulsion, but they have also indicated these American women could receive the death penalty by hanging.

A prayerful bump for the two girls in Afghanistan and for Ted Maher in Monaco. These people are not dope addicts, pedeophiles, scam artists, or anything else who got busted in a foreign country. They are good people just trying to do good. God Protect Them and help all of their parents & Ted's wife & children.
