Before the Islamic revolution of 1979, there were fewer than 500 Christians from a Muslim background in Iran. In 2020, many estimate there are a million or more. Despite severe persecution, the church is growing rapidly.
Prayer has been a vital part of the story of Iran’s church. In the 1950s a group of believers met every night for four years to pray for Iran’s millions. Today, as persecution continues, the need for prayer is as great as ever. With faithful intercession, Iran can become a strategic missionary-sending nation to the entire Middle East and beyond.
Iran 30’s short, easy-to-read prayer topics will help you play your part in the beautiful story God is writing for Iran and beyond.

Please pray for the family of Iranian Christian Rasool Abdollahi, who passed away unexpectedly on July 1st at home in Iran.
Rasool was a gentle and courageous man of God who stood firm in his faith, even during nearly two years of imprisonment for following Jesus. Released over a decade ago, he remained in Iran afterward as a faithful witness to Christ.

As tensions rise following Israel’s attack on Iran, many are asking: How should we pray?
First, we pray for mercy—for the innocent, for families gripped by fear, and for those most vulnerable in both Iran and Israel. We ask for protection over lives and cities, and for comfort for all who are afraid.
