Be Christ’s Hands and Feet in Hostile Nations

Three Iranian converts to Christianity (who grew up in the Muslim faith) were charged and received sentences totaling more than 40 years in prison.

Why? Because of their Christian beliefs … because of their involvement in worship meetings.

• One woman received 16 years. She’s pregnant with her first child.
• Another believer received 10 years.
• The third, a 37 year old, got 10+ years.

The judges within the court system in Iran are cruel — but it’s true.

So today I echo the prayer requests this news accompanied:

1. Pray that these three are acquitted, and quickly.

2. Pray that they experience the Holy Spirit’s presence like never before. 

3. Pray for protection.

4. Pray that we, as the Body of Christ, can support them despite their circumstances.

And following your prayer for these three, please give to LRI today.

Your generous, compassionate gift to Liberty Relief International will extend the love of Christ to the targeted and oppressed — in Iran and beyond.

Through our caring, frontline partners, you will:

1. Minister to physical needs — feeding the persecuted, clothing them, giving them water and shelter and safety.
2. Advocate on their behalf — raising a voice against the terror they face day and night.
3. Offer spiritual and emotional encouragement — healing for the broken.
4. Provide Bibles and gospel-based discipleship materials to help root God’s Word deep in their hearts.
5. And more.

 I trust the Lord will bless you for being His hands and feet in hostile nations. It is challenging work, but absolutely necessary.

And thank you for being someone our persecuted family members can count on in their time of need!

In His service,

Mat Staver
