I receive emails from a Christian legal non-profit known as the ACLJ (The American Center for Law and Justice).
They're working to help secure the freedom of a Pastor Saeed Abedini, who is currently imprisoned in Iran simply because he refuses to renounce his Christian faith. He is enduring regular beatings, suffering from internal bleeding, and he is being refused any medical treatment. His condition is worsening.
You can read the latest update on his situation here: http://aclj.org/iran/american-pastor-saeed-abedini-thrown-into-solitary-confinement-in-iran-health-deteriorating
Right now, the ACLJ is running a campaign to send letters of encouragement to Pastor Saeed, whose birthday is May 7th.
To send a letter of encouragement an/or sign the petition for his release, you can go here: http://savesaeed.org/
Please remember him in your prayers, and all the Christians around the world who are being persecuted for their beliefs.
