Arrests, physical abuse, harassment, fear: but the church in Iran is growing

Iran is number two on the Open Doors UK & Ireland World Watch List of countries where persecution of Christians is most severe. For many believers in this country, choosing to follow Jesus can mean discrimination, isolation and even imprisonment.

We believe it’s time to share with our churches and small groups the reality of being a Christian in Iran.

Already this year volunteers across the UK and Ireland have been raising awareness of the plight of Christians
in North Korea using the first Where faith costs the most resource pack. Now we bring you brand new
resources to help lift the lid on Iran and raise support for Iranian believers who are counting the cost of following Christ.
