Lemme add......
We're hearing that the extent to which the Taliban are... um... they appear to range from "in control" to "violently totalitarian" to "simply occupying", depending on where in Afghanistan somebody is.
There appears to be no real "command and control", and each region seems to be setting its own rules.
The media, of course, will focus on the most sensational.

We've heard that ONE family has actually made it to Germany --- and we have heard that other families (or individuals) are still in country but are "being kept safe", whatever that means.
So far, we have not heard of ANY deaths to the people we support, or know of... we praise God for that.
There is a NGO that is working diligently with "our people" and others, shepherding them across Afghanistan, and we hear that an "underground railroad" is emerging.

Thanks, and, yeah, I was just checking the latest news before Church Sunday -- still haven't heard from anybody from our group.
We have heard, however, that some of the Christian Aid people with other groups have made it to Pakistan, and are safe.
They indicate that they plan on "hunkering down" in Pakistan, waiting to see what develops in Afghanistan, and going back in to offer aid.

for you and for those stuck in Afghanistan. I've read the story of someone who made it out pre-2001. It's not an easy road - especially for women.

Praying for you dear brother. When world events become personal, it's easy to get angry at the evil that caused it. I don't see anything wrong with being angry at the situation itself, but we must take care to separate it from sinful levels of anger at the person.

Yes, this is an ugly situation. It's got to be worse when you have a personal connection.
