AFGHANISTAN: Have Faith and Not Fear

After the attacks of 9/11, God called Werner and Hannelie Groenewald to go and share Jesus' love in Afghanistan. Even some of their own family members said, 'NO! God would never call you to take your children to Afghanistan!' Inside the country, they served and loved the Afghan people in the name of Jesus. Hannelie, as a doctor, provided medical care. Werner worked in leadership development and humanitarian aid. Their work, and the fact that they served in the name of Jesus, did not go unnoticed by radical Muslims in Afghanistan. In 2014, a Taliban attack on their home took the lives of Werner and the Groenewalds' son and daughter, Jean-Pierre and Rodé. Hannelie was not home at the time of the attack, and her life was spared. Listen as she tells the story of God's call to Afghanistan, and how God increased her faith even in the days and weeks before the attack, preparing her to endure faithfully a terrible loss. You can watch online as the names of Hannelie's family, Werner, Jean-Pierre and Rodé are added to The Martyrs Memorial on Day of the Christian Martyr, June 29th.
