Piroozi Update

Dear Friends,

Today, we stand at a pivotal moment—one that could impact millions of lives for generations to come.

For more than twenty years, God has opened an extraordinary door for us to share the Gospel with Farsi-speaking people throughout Iran, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and the global diaspora. What began as a step of faith has grown into a movement that is reaching hearts across one of the most spiritually hungry regions of the world.

Today, I want to focus specifically on Iran.

Behind the political headlines and international tensions are nearly 90 million men, women, and children created in the image of God—people searching for hope, freedom, purpose, and truth.

For nearly five decades, many have lived under oppression, uncertainty, and spiritual darkness. Yet even in the midst of these challenges, God is moving powerfully.

Since 2003, our television program, The Voice of Freedom, has been broadcast by satellite in Farsi language into Iran and throughout the Middle East, Europe, and North America. Week after week, year after year, the Word of God has entered homes, touched hearts, and transformed lives.

The fruit has been extraordinary.

Across Iran and the Farsi-speaking world, people are discovering Christ. Families are being restored. Lives are being healed. Hope is replacing despair. Countless men and women are finding salvation through the power of the Gospel.

Many now recognize the Iranian church as one of the fastest-growing Christian movements in the world.

But growth has created a new challenge.

Millions are hearing the Gospel, yet countless new believers lack access to consistent biblical teaching and discipleship. They need more than an introduction to Christ—they need to be equipped to follow Him, grow in faith, and become mature disciples who can influence their families, communities, and nation.

That is why we have launched Piroozi Network.

Piroozi means Victory.

Piroozi Network is a 24-hour Farsi-language satellite television network dedicated entirely to biblical discipleship, teaching, and spiritual growth. Every day, every hour, viewers have access to life-changing, Bible-centered content designed to strengthen their faith and help them walk with Christ.

This is more than a television network.

It is a discipleship movement.

It is a rescue mission for a people hungry for truth.

It is a platform that can equip millions of believers across Iran and the Farsi-speaking world to become effective ambassadors of Jesus Christ.

When the Apostle Paul stood before King Agrippa, he declared:

“I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision.” (Acts 26:19)

We believe God has given us a vision that extends far beyond broadcasting. It is a vision to help raise up an entire generation of mature believers who will carry the light of the Gospel into every corner of the Farsi-speaking world.

Nearly thirty years ago, I sensed the Lord speak to my heart that Iran could experience one of the greatest spiritual awakenings of modern times if we remained faithful to His direction.

Since then, we have watched God do what only He can do.

When we launched a weekly television broadcast in 2003, He gave us victory.

When we expanded to daily broadcasting in 2006, He gave us victory again.

Today, we stand before our next giant: establishing a full-time discipleship network capable of ministering to millions every single day.

And once again, we believe God will give the victory.

Launching and operating Piroozi Network during its first year will require an investment of $4 million and as of 2018 when this mandate began, we have invested over $400 thousand to prepare the way to fully launch Piroozi.

At first glance, that may seem significant.

But when viewed through the lens of eternal impact, it represents less than three cents per person per year to provide ongoing biblical teaching and discipleship to 140 million Farsi-speaking people.

Imagine the impact:

• Entire families hearing the Gospel for the first time.

• New believers growing daily in their faith.

• Churches strengthened through sound biblical teaching.

• Future leaders equipped to influence their communities.

• A generation transformed by the power of God’s Word.

Opportunities like this do not come often.

We believe we are living in a strategic moment of harvest.

In 2022, I received a strong conviction from the Lord concerning the next seven years—a season of unprecedented opportunity to reach souls and make disciples. Like Joseph preparing for a season that would affect nations, we believe God is calling us to act while the door remains open.

But we cannot do it alone.

The Apostle Paul thanked the believers in Philippi for their “partnership in the Gospel” because they understood a powerful truth: God’s work advances when His people work together.

Some are called to go.

Others are called to send.

But both share in the harvest.

As Scripture says:

“The share of the one who stays with the supplies is to be the same as that of the one who goes down to the battle.” (1 Samuel 30:24)

Today, I am asking you to prayerfully consider becoming part of this historic opportunity.

If you are already a partner, thank you. Your prayers, generosity, and faithfulness have helped make every victory possible.

If you have not yet partnered with us, I invite you to join us now.

Pray with us.

Believe with us.

Invest with us.

Together, we can help bring biblical discipleship to millions of people who are hungry for truth and hungry for God.

Together, we can help equip a generation of believers.

Together, we can participate in what may become one of the greatest spiritual harvests of our lifetime.

Thank you for your prayers, your partnership, and your faith.

Amplifying Freedom,
Kamran Karimi
