Iran: dream of hope

A young woman in Tehran, Iran, who introduced her boyfriend to Jesus hasn’t seen him since he fled the city, but his dreams give her hope that he is well, it was reported in mid-November.

The Iranian woman has heard that since Armin Davoodi fled authorities who threatened him with death for proclaiming Christ earlier this year, he has been having the same recurring dream he had before he put his faith in Christ and stopped his drug addiction and suicide attempts. She was the one who, two years ago, first explained to him that the shepherd in his dream pointing toward the light was Christ.

Like Davoodi, the young woman is also an ex-drug addict and convert from Islam. She met Davoodi in a Tehran rehabilitation centre where she worked as a volunteer who taught painting therapy.
