Iranians

There is great connectivity between Iranian-Canadians and their family and friends in Iran. Pray that the gospel that is accessed and accepted here in Canada would travel back and transform Iran.

Division and disunity is a real challenge in the Iranian community—including in the Iranian church. Pray for the Spirit of God to bring healing, peace and unity to the believers, including pastoral leaders.

Praise God for the rapid growth of the Iranian church globally, including here in Canada. There are a number of Farsi-speaking congregations that share a church building with other congregations.

Ask God to raise up Metro Vancouver Jesus followers to meet Iranians, give the good news to them, and read the Bible with them.

Pray that Jesus would communicate to Iranians through dreams and visions to draw them to Himself.

Pray that the traumas experienced by recent immigrants while in Iran, would find healing through Jesus Christ. Pray that scripture-based trauma-healing groups would be started to serve this need.

Pray that Iranians who are turning to their ancient Zoroastiran religion (because of the failure of Islam in Iran), realize the futility of it, and discover the power and truth of Jesus Christ.
