Being a Christian in Iran is not like being a muslim in the UK.

'Iranian officials have threatened to take a sick child into care unless her Christian parents renounce their faith and stop speaking publicly about Christ.
The threat hanging over 10-year-old Hadi, who has a serious kidney and bladder condition, is the culmination of intense persecution for her family. Both her parents, who were raised as Muslims, were detained in December – and were allowed home only after they had been subjected to two weeks of intimidation and bullying.
Hadi's mother, Hamideh Najafi, was arrested at their home in Mashhad on December 16. While Hamideh was in custody, her husband was also summoned to the interrogation room. Hamideh's interrogators threatened to beat him unless she signed a 'confession' that she was 'mentally and psychologically unfit and disturbed'. Having signed this forced confession, she was then not allowed a lawyer in court.'


Please pray.
