American Pastor Saeed Abedini has just
been released from imprisonment in Iran.
For more than three years, Pastor
Saeed – a U.S. citizen – has endured imprisonment in Iran.
We can now officially confirm that
Pastor Saeed has been freed. In addition there are reports that 3 other
Americans imprisoned in Iran have also been released.
News broke late last night that
Pastor Saeed had been taken from his prison cell to Iran’s Central Intelligence
agency. While the details are still coming in, we can confirm that this
morning he was released.
This is a major victory. We
are incredibly grateful to the more than 1.1 million people who have joined us
in fighting across the globe for Pastor Saeed’s freedom.
We’re delighted this day has finally
arrived. American Pastor Saeed Abedini spent more than three years in an
Iranian prison. We’re grateful for the millions of people who have stood with
us in our ongoing efforts – both in this country and abroad – to secure his
release. We have worked and prayed that this day would finally arrive.
And now, Pastor Saeed can return home.
Pastor Saeed’s wife Naghmeh,
responded:
“This has been an answer to prayer.
This is a critical time for me and my family. We look forward to Saeed's return
and want to thank the millions of people who have stood with us in prayer
during this most difficult time.”
We will continue to bring you
updates as we are able. Please share this amazing news and continue to
pray in earnest for Pastor Saeed and his family.
