"The guards can’t even stand the paper cross that I have made - Yet even in the darkest of circumstances the light of Christ shines through"

Letter from Pastor Saeed Abedini, Rajai Shahr Prison 2014 (remember Naghmeh, Jacob and Rebekka)

"This is the first Christmas that I am completely without my family; all of my family is presently outside of the country. These conditions have made this upcoming Christmas season very hard, cold and shattering for me. --- He concluded his message with this charge to everyone who reads his words: “So this Christmas let the lava-like love of Christ enter into the depth of your heart and make you fiery, ready to pay any cost in order to bring the same lava love to the cold world around you, transforming them with the true message of Christmas.”
