Hebrews 13:3 
"Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering."

DEVASTING BLOW...Continue to Pray for Pastor Saeed Abedini as the appeals court in Tehran rejected his appeal and refused to reduce his 8 year prison sentence because he refuses to deny his Christian faith. It's almost ONE year since American Pastor Saeed Abedini was sentenced to Iran's notoriously brutal Evin Prison.  We learned that Pastor Saeed's abdominal injuries - sustained from intense beatings - are causing him excruciating pain.  He takes medicine prescribed by Iranian authorities that does nothing to help; he must be returned home to doctors in the USA and to his family!. 

On September 26th – the one-year anniversary of his imprisonment – Pastor Saeed's wife is organizing prayer vigils for him in nearly 50 cities all across America and in dozens more around the globe.  Nearly every state in America is already represented, and new events are being added every day.  Please pray, attend a vigil, and urge your friends to participate. Pastor Saeed needs our support.
