It is illegal to be a Christian in Iran. A Letter From Mark Mueller

God is doing incredible work in the world. This should not surprise us, but sometimes it does

The Outreach Foundation is working more closely with Pars Theological Center in London. Pars trains future pastors and church leaders in the spread of the Gospel in Iran and where Iranians gather. What is unique about Pars? Many of their students return to Iran to continue the flourishing work of Christ amid potentially harsh treatment by the government.

It is illegal to be a Christian in Iran. Imprisonment is possible. Disappearance and death are as well. Yet, God is calling people out of the country to be equipped as Christian leaders to return and form underground house churches.

The result is the church in Iran is one of the fastest growing churches in the world.

You can be a part of this incredible work by supporting Pars throug The Outreach Ministry.

Please consider a Kingdom gift.

Dear friends,

The situation in Burma now is worse than we’ve ever seen it, and there is the heaviest fighting since World War II. The Burma military comes with a speed and a force that I’ve never seen before. At the same time, there is a new unity in Burma, against the dictatorship, that cuts across all social, economic, racial, tribal, ideological, and religious lines. This unity is based on people from all over Burma banding together to stand against the oppressive dictatorship. This gives us all hope ...
