Farshid Fathi

Location: Iran (Islamic Republic of)
Arrested: December 2010

Disturbed to learn of a false story on the Internet that he had complained about his suffering, Farshid wrote a letter to clear up the matter.

"How can I complain about my suffering when my brothers and sisters are paying a high price for their faith all over the world? I recently heard about many people killed in front of a church in Pakistan. I also heard a young sister in Christ sharing about how she lost her family for the sake of the Gospel and still she is willing to return to share the good news.

"…So when I look at all these heroes of faith, how can I complain about my suffering? Thank you so much for your prayers and for your support and for your love."
