72 Hours
To get out of the country!
Jabaro grew up in Iran. He had difficulty in school so he was sent to a reform school (boarding school). He knew that his options for a better life were narrowing, so he disciplined himself, achieved good grades and was accepted to university in Iran. College life was good and Jabaro enjoyed his studies and friends on campus. He met a girl and they were married while he was still attending university. Jabaro’s future in Iran changed when he joined a student activist group that protested the government. Some of his fellow students were arrested. Jabaro was told by a friend who worked in government that he had 72 hours to leave the country! He quickly said goodbye to his relatives, then he and his wife boarded a plane for Malaysia. They now live here under refugee status with the United Nations. Jabaro met believers in Malaysia who talked to him about his relationship with God. He began to study the Bible and became a believer along with his wife. God recently brought them to our fellowship and we have enjoyed getting to know them. God has humbled Jabaro through life circumstances and he is learning to depend on Him for everything. Please pray for Jabaro, his wife and two young children as they continue to grow and trust God for the future.
