UK course reaches Iran and Afghanistan

Up to 70 Iranians across countries such as Iran and Afghanistan have completed, via Zoom, the Christianity Explored (CE) course in the Farsi language. It was coordinated by an Iranian asylum-seeker who attends St Anne’s Church in Limehouse, an evangelical Anglican church in Tower Hamlets.

The rector, the Revd Richard Bray, asked for prayer for the many Iranian contacts made. ‘The Lord is truly at work among Iranians!’, he added.

They are now leading follow-up Bible studies in Acts. Preparation for a second course in Farsi is underway and anyone with Iranian contacts who may be interested can contact Richard at richard.bray@ stanneslimehouse.org.
