Iran: nuclear pact = freedom of movement = Christian opportunities

President Rouhani says the official implementation of the nuclear deal between Tehran and six world powers will increase Tehran’s engagement with the world. Companies will again be able to send skilled workers and university lecturers into the country, opening the door for Christian ‘tentmakers’ to officially enter the country. Young people are the largest population bloc in Iran (over 60%) and are among the most politically active in the Islamic world. Iran is also one of the most tech-savvy societies with an estimated thirty million Internet users, led by the youth, and boasting between 60,000 and 110,000 active blogs (one of the highest numbers in the Middle East). Pray for visas once again to be issued to Christian teachers and technicians and for ‘businesses’ to move into Iran legally. Pray protection for Iranians who are currently engaging with the underground Church.
