I have received many requests for an update on brother Youcef. On October 10, 2011, the local court in Rasht, Iran sent a letter to the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khameini, requesting his legel opinion in the case of Youcef Nadarkhani. There has still been no response from the Ayatollah to this letter. We can confirm that Youcef is still alive in Lakan prison in Rasht. Though we received word that his execution could be imminent, neither he nor his attorneys have received a written verdict or execution order. Through the power of Jesus Christ and your prayers he has been preserved alive to this day. We give credit to the Spirit of God moving in hearts and minds around the world and causing them to take action to help Youcef. Please continue to pray for him, his family, and his church. Also, spread the word on Twitter, Facebook, at your churches, and in your community.
