SPECIAL DEVOTIONS IN HONOR OF THE BAHÁ’Í PRISONERS IN IRAN
Sunday, February 7th, 7:00
pm
Bahá'í Center of Minneapolis
3644 Chicago
Avenue South
This program will be dedicated to seven Iranian
Bahá'í leaders who have been imprisoned in
Tehran for nearly two years on false charges
stemming from their membership in the Bahá'í
Faith, which was founded in Iran in 1844. The
next scheduled session of the trial will take
place on February 7, 2010.
The Bahá'í Faith is the largest non-Muslim
religious minority in Iran and more than 200
Bahá'ís have been executed by Iranian
authorities since the Islamic Revolution in
1979.
