(Uzbekistan)–While the bombing continues in Afghanistan, many Afghan refugees are fleeing into bordering Uzbekistan where evangelism is difficult. According to Operation World, 83-percent of the population is Muslim. Less than one-percent is Christian. Of the seven indigenous languages only one has the entire Bible in their language. Christians are being asked to pray for the small-unregistered church that they’ll be successful in reaching refugees and their fellow countrymen with the Gospel.
