Sometimes simple statements make large impressions. A few weeks ago, I received a brief email of encouragement from one of our Church 7 viewers inside Iran:
Hello Pastor Hormoz,
Today we participated in Church 7 with a few friends. Thank you so much for everything you do. Here in Iran, we count the days for the live Church broadcast.
Amir
Amir’s comments were short, but very sweet to me and our staff. With no other option available to 97% of the believers inside of Iran, Satellite TV provides the only source of spiritual nourishment and encouragement for these hungry people.
Join me in praying for Amir and the hundreds of thousands of believers in Iran who live under the constant threat of persecution for their faith in Christ. May the Lord grant them grace and mercy as they seek to know and follow Him.
Dear Pastor Hormoz,
I became aware of your ministry after a trip to Israel with the Joshua Fund. The purity of the messages from your Church 7 viewers frequently brings me to tears and keeps my thoughts focused on what is important in this world. Blessings to you and your viewers. I count the days until I can communicate with you face to face in His coming kingdom. Until then, my prayers go out to you all, especially the Persian women who are my sisters in Christ.
