It appears that Glenn Beck was successful. No government help and Beck and his group so far have rescued 5100 christians . Pretty sad, Beck said that the State Dept and Biden are the biggest reason for causing the problems they encountered. Amazing what determined private citizens can do when the government claims they cant do anything

I am not normally a Glenn Beck fan, but I always have felt he is sincere in what he does and says. This was not meant as a suggesstion for you or anyone to donate. It was more appreciation for those willing no matter how improbable to step forward. I hope and pray those like him can at least prompt the government to do something. The French and British care enough about their citizens to go after theirs.

This is a very moving cry for help. I recall reading, several years ago, an ad in Christianity Today magazine. it was soliciting funds for smuggling Bibles into a particular country. It went on to say that since the Bible was banned in that country, it was necessary for Christian organizations to smuggle Bibles into it. This was somewhat expensive; nevertheless. due to the evil government, essential. Problem with that advertisement was, at that time, Bibles could be purchased in most bookshops in parts of that country at near wholesale prices. The price was between ~$10.00. That was for a nicely bound dual language Bible. Nice local language editions could be had for about $2.00. Around the same time, there was a guy on YouTube asking for donations of $60.00 to buy a kit to remove chiggers from Africans. This kit consisted of ~ $5.00 worth of medical supplies i.e., disposable scalpel, bottle of peroxide, gauze, etc. Then there was the mission group soliciting support for "missionaries" to live in a country. They were asking for 6-8 thousand dollars a month to support a married couple with a small child or two. I happened to know of expatriates living in that country who said it could easily be done for about $1,000 a month. Consider exchange rates and purchasing power when making donations. There are people who see what most consider a catastrophe as just another income opportunity.

Hope and Pray this group has some success. Glenn Beck’s Nazarene Fund Raises More Than $20M In 3 Days To Rescue Christians From Afghanistan "We will get those people out." By Jon Brown • Aug 20, 2021 DailyWire.com • Dylan Hollingsworth/Bloomberg via Getty Images A fund started by radio host Glenn Beck raised more than $20 million in less than three days to help evacuate Christians from Afghanistan. The Nazarene Fund is gearing up to extract approximately 5,000 people, mostly women and children, from Afghanistan as the country descends into chaos and the Taliban take over, according to The Blaze.According to their website, The Nazarene Fund exists “to liberate the captive, to free the enslaved, and to rescue, rebuild and restore the lives of Christians and other persecuted religious and ethnic minorities wherever and whenever they are in need.” “I’m BLOWN AWAY by what this audience has done to help rescue persecuted Christians in Afghanistan! OVER $20 MILLION raised in less than 3 days! THANK YOU!” Beck tweeted Friday.“I’m truly afraid we’re going to lose a lot of our staff, because this is so dangerous,” Beck said during a podcast Friday. “So dangerous. But I will tell you this: we will get those people out. We will get those people out.” “The churches have disbanded over there,” Beck continued. “Christians are not even — they’re not hanging together, they’re not hiding together, they’re all hiding separately. The Taliban is stopping you, checking your phone. If you have a Bible app or anything to do with Jesus on your phone, you’re instantly being killed. They are setting Christians on fire, those who have converted because they’re the worst, according to the Taliban.” “Please pray for these people,” Beck added, who later said most of the millions in donations were small ones. As The Daily Wire noted Thursday, an underground church that partners with Frontier Alliance International (FAI) has reported that the Taliban are targeting Christians for death. According to FAI:
