Two years ago, I first met sister Kelly. I told her I was looking for someone who could help me enroll in the seminary. Rather, she told me that she was looking for someone who would like to enroll in the seminary. I was shocked by her words because I had been looking for such an opportunity for a long time. So I hugged her in the street. I was very happy. A few days later, Brother Fred enrolled me at GMU. It is a great encouragement when meeting with true Christians. Sister Kelly and brother Fred have dedicated their lives to expanding the kingdom of God.

We are having a hard time as refugees here in Greece. In particular, I had a panic disorder and I am taking very strong medicines for it. There are times when I cannot hear anything because of this disease, but because I am God’s chosen child, I will overcome all these difficulties and stand firm. God is helping to fulfill His plan through His people, especially for me and my family. Now I can study theology, the Word of God. This is surprising and incredible for me in this refugee situation. I and my family would like to thank the supporters of the Koinonia Education Center and N & R for their support. A dream come true for me and my family. I pray that God’s mercy, grace, and blessings overflow to the supporters. All your support will end in great results in Him

I’d like to share the good news with our Muslim brothers and sisters. Many of them are good Christians, but they are going the wrong way. I will show them the true way. Christian Apologetics is one of my favorite subjects. Muslims say that the gospel of Christianity has fallen, but they fail to point out where and how it fell. They ask how God, the Trinity, can become human. Through my study of Christian apologetics, I learned how to answer them. Every time I share the gospel with Muslims, they listen intently and ponder. I know how to give them the Truth they want. They are thirsty for love. Giving them love is another great way to introduce Jesus. They do not read the Quran and worship Allah indiscriminately. The time has come to show them who the real God is. We Iranians understand the Quran better than others because of our Islamic background. We are a chosen people who shine the light of God on Muslims. Now Muslim brothers and sisters can find the way of truth, the only way, Jesus.

Today, as a Christian, this image of me could not have been achieved without God and your support. Thank you to everyone who has given me this wonderful opportunity to study theology at Grace Mission University.
