Afghanistan: Mission & Objective

Afghanistan, a landlocked country at the crossroads of Central and South Asia, has a rich and complex history shaped by ancient empires, cultural exchanges, and conflict. Once part of the Silk Road, Afghanistan was influenced by Persian, Greek, Buddhist, and Islamic civilizations, leaving behind a diverse cultural and architectural legacy.

The country embraced Islam in the 7th century, which remains central to Afghan identity today. However, decades of political turmoil, including foreign invasions, civil wars, and Taliban rule, have deeply impacted its development. Despite these challenges, Afghanistan’s Christians continue to advance the gospel and maintain a strong sense of community.

CIC Mission Inc. has chosen to walk alongside its Afghan church partners in their effort to catalyze a Christ centered multiplying, bi-vocational and transformative church planting movement wherever Afghans live.

Understanding Afghanistan: A Land of Challenges and Opportunity

Since the Taliban reestablished its rule in September 2021, the country of Afghanistan has grown significantly worse in the area of human rights violations and persecution of Christians.  Evangelical Christianity in Afghanistan faces intense persecution but also presents unique opportunities for discipleship and church planting as spiritual hunger continues to grow.

How You Can Pray

Ask God to protect believers and house churches from persecution and harm.

Pray for strong faith, wisdom, and perseverance for new disciples.

Pray for access to Bibles, discipleship materials, and safe gathering places.

Needs and Opportunities

Afghanistan is a challenging yet vital mission field where the gospel message is desperately needed. By addressing the specific needs of the Afghan church, there is an opportunity to bring hope and transformation to this troubled land.
