Iranian Christians request prayer for three Christians belonging to the self-styled ‘Church of Iran’ network who were arrested on 13 May and remain in detention in Rasht. Security agents raided the home of Yousef Nadarkhani, a church leader who had attracted international attention after he was charged with apostasy and sentenced to death in 2010. He was finally acquitted of apostasy charges, but sentenced to three years' imprisonment for evangelising. He was eventually released on 7 December 2013. He and his wife Tina were arrested, along with Yasser Mossayebzadeh (who remains in detention - the other two were released). In addition, Saheb Fadaie and Mohammedreza Omidi were summoned to report to the security offices. Their homes were then raided and phones, computers and Christian literature were confiscated. The two men were detained, and are thought to be in Lakan prison near Rasht. Omidi was also one of four Christian converts sentenced in 2013 to receive eighty lashes for drinking communion wine and possessing a satellite receiver and dish.
