Before the Islamic revolution of 1979, there were fewer than 500 Christians from a Muslim background in Iran. In 2020, many estimate there are a million or more. Despite severe persecution, the church is growing rapidly.
Prayer has been a vital part of the story of Iran’s church. In the 1950s a group of believers met every night for four years to pray for Iran’s millions. Today, as persecution continues, the need for prayer is as great as ever. With faithful intercession, Iran can become a strategic missionary-sending nation to the entire Middle East and beyond.

On June 28th Iranians will go to the polls to elect a new president following the unexpected death of President Raisi in a helicopter crash in May.
Only six candidates, approved by the Supreme Leader, are in the running. Deeply-disillusioned Iranians have little faith in the political process, so a low voter turnout is expected.
