Let us pray in a vigil over the next 48 hours wherever we are in the world for Saeed, his wife Naghmeh and their children in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

19 January 2013: Brothers and Sisters in Christ all over the world the situation of Pastor Saeed Abedini is our immediate concern, and we must lift him, his wife Naghmeh and their two young children up to God in prayer. Pastor Abedini, an American-Iranian citizen, was pulled off a public transportation bus and arrested in September 2012 for the same “crime” as Iranian Pastor Yusef Nadarkhani – his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and his preaching of The Word to the Iranian people.

Pastor Abedini in being held in the notorious Evin Prison in Tehran where is subjected to an alternating daily regimen of physical torture, mental anguish, sleep deprivation as well as an unrelenting assault upon his inviolable human rights. A hastily scheduled trial before Judge Pir-Abassi the day after tomorrow, Monday, 21 January 2013, stands  before our brother-in-Christ. Judge Pir-Abassi is infamous the world over for the number of unwarranted death sentences he has handed down. At the present time and to the best of any one’s knowledge the United States Department of State under Hillary Rodham Clinton has done absolutely nothing to intercede on Pastor Abedini’s behalf.

Let us pray in a vigil over the next 48 hours wherever we are in the world for Saeed, his wife Naghmeh and their children in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
