Bibles are difficult to obtain and therefore highly treasured by Iranian believers. Very few believers own a copy of God’s Word. This is because it is considered illegal to own, print, import or distribute Bibles in Iran.
Despite these restrictions, a group of Christians have knocking on the doors of people they do not know and hand-delivering Bibles to anyone who will accept the gift. They sometimes place the Bible in mailboxes.
Front-line workers have received many reports of Iranians who read the Bible for the first time after unexpectedly receiving one in their mail box, and later became followers of Christ.
Pray that there will be an increase in the supply and availability of Bibles in the local Iranian language. Pray that God will protect these courageous believers as they hand-out Bibles to complete strangers. Pray that everyone who receives a Bible will come to faith in Christ.
