Iranian Christians Receiving Increased Pressure

We are grateful for your interest,  your involvement and support of the prisoners we are advocating for in Iran. Please continue to forward these messages and take action to help these brothers. I will ask you again, film a video of yourself saying “Free Pastor Behnam” using your smartphone, your friends smartphone or your webcam. Then email that to me at SpeakOut@freebehnam.com. We are posting these videos on our Facebook page and will make a compilation of the videos that we receive. We want to hear 1 million voices strong speaking out for Pastor Behnam Irani. Don’t be silent!

We received word that our brother Behnam is in good health and good spirits. In addition we have learned from our sources that Pastor Silas Rabbani was transferred into Ghezal Hezar Prison in Karaj where Behnam is being held. In fact they are in the same jail cell together along with killers and drug dealers. We pray God strengthens and keeps them in the midst of this extreme trial.

Many Iranian Christians are becoming afraid because of the threats of VEVAK. We ask that you remember them in prayer, that God would give them boldness to speak the truth and to tell their stories for the sake of their own security and especially of their faith.

Forward this story on to your friends. For those of you in the media or advocacy groups reading this email, would you please consider taking specific action for Pastor Behnam, ask your associates and those who support you to speak out for him. He and his family need our help.
