ENI – The United Reformed Church in Great Britain has condemned as “an offence against God” the assassination of Gayle Williams, a 34-year-old Christian aid worker in Kabul, and the chilling comments of those who said they killed her.
Rev. John Marsh, moderator of the general assembly of the United Reformed Church, said in a statement, “It is deeply sad and sickening that Williams has been deliberately targeted as a Christian, and gunned down in the streets of Kabul. She had been welcomed into Afghanistan, and was working with a trusted organization, bringing skilled assistance to people with disabilities.”
Williams, a dual national of South Africa and Britain, worked with disabled children. On October 20, two men on a motorcycle gunned her down as she walked to work in the Afghan capital.
