To Help you Pray this month for your Local Mosque Community.
I was born into a Muslim family in Iran. I was a member of AA (Alcoholics Anonymous), and as I worked on the 12 steps of the AA book, I recognized (in step 11) that all the steps have been taken from the New Testament. One day, I saw my old friend on the street, and he invited me to join the underground church where he was attending. That was about 15 years ago when I met Jesus Christ. I believed in Jesus through my good friend.
Because the government in Iran is against underground churches, there is a lot of suffering, and churches must close. So, I decided to leave my country and move to Turkey. By the grace of God and the help of the Holy Sprit I was able to serve Iranians with Muslim background believers in Jesus Christ. I was serving as a Pastor in a church located in Nevshehir, Turkey with about 120 members. Later I moved to Toronto, Canada, where I now serve the Iranian community.
John 3:16
