The Christmas holidays are a rich and beautiful occasion, and many Persians in the West enjoy participating in the meaningful and lovely ceremonies connected to Christianity. However, in the wake of the wave of Christmas, many of the Persians who were engaged by the beauty of the gospel in December are taken out with the tide in January. Nancy attended a language class at church with her mother in December and heard the good news of Jesus. Stunned and in tears, the only response she could utter was, “That is so beautiful.” However, as happens with many other Persians, she has not been seen at church since. Please pray for believers in the West as they seek to follow up with all the connections made during Christmas. Pray for Persian Christians to take the lead in following up with their neighbors and friends who heard the good news of Jesus last month. Pray that the seeds of the gospel sown in December will soon yield a harvest of salvation among the Persians of the Western diaspora.
