Action Packs 2004

On
November 6th our club Gathered together to fill the Voice of the Martyrs
"Action Packs" with clothing etc... such as: Blankets,
Jackets, Sweaters, Gloves and Mittens, Knit Hats, Socks, T-Shirts, Bed
Sheets, Towels, and Soap. We were so blessed to be able to do this for
our persecuted brothers and sisters in Pakistan and Afghanistan, even
though it was such a little thing :-(

In
Pakistan and Afghanistan, it is not unusual for radical Muslim groups to
attack, persecute or harass Christians. Many radical Muslims believe
they are doing their god (Allah) a favor by destroying anyone who does
not convert to Islam. Pakistani and Afghan Christians face
difficulties not only from religious persecution, but also from
hardships in every aspect of daily life. The Muslim majority in both
nations controls the government, jobs, and schools, therefore, it is
very difficult for the small Christian minority to improve life for themselves
and their families. Despite the many obstacles, Pakistani and Afghan
Christians are standing strong. Their faith continues to inspire us.
