The
mother of pastor Saeed Abedini has fled to the United States to escape the daily
threats and intimidation she faced in Iran while campaigning for the release of
her son, an American citizen who was sentenced to eight years in prison for his
Christian faith.
"Facing
threats in Iran, Saeed's mom is now safely out of the country," Naghmeh Abedini,
the pastor's wife, told FoxNews.com. "We look forward to
seeing her soon here in the United States. It has been a difficult time for all
of us — including Saeed's mom." Christian

We shall be praying for Saeed in our Early Birds Prayer Meeting later this morning. He acts as our representative for all of the persecuted Church worldwide.
