The Women’s Breakfast Book Club
The Breakfast Book Club is a group of women who gather once a month to enjoy a delicious breakfast, to read inspiring books, and have meaningful conversation. A light breakfast will be served.
We are looking forward to gathering to discuss our next book on Saturday, September 28th, 2024 from 9:00am - 10:30am. This event’s location is still to be determined.
The book we are reading for the month of November is called “Captive In Iran" by Maryam Rostampour & Marziyeh Amirizadeh
Maryam Rostampour and Marziyeh Amirizadeh knew they were putting their lives on the line. Islamic laws in Iran forbade them from sharing their Christian beliefs, but in three years, they’d covertly put New Testaments into the hands of twenty thousand of their countrymen and started two secret house churches.
In 2009, they were finally arrested and held in the notorious Evin Prison in Tehran, a place where inmates are routinely tortured and executions are commonplace. In the face of ruthless interrogations, persecution, and a death sentence, Maryam and Marziyeh chose to take the radical―and dangerous―step of sharing their faith inside the very walls of the government stronghold that was meant to silence them. In Captive in Iran, two courageous Iranian women recount how God used their 259 days in Evin Prison to shine His light into one of the world’s darkest places, giving hope to those who had lost everything and showing love to those in despair
