  • Fifth generation Bahá'í Parvin Esfahani with husband Woody Stanwood, left, and daughter Aneesa Machin, right, reflect on how members of her family have risked persecution, jail and death in Iran for over thirty years.  While the rest of her family have fled the country, her sister, brother-in-law, and two nephews are currently facing prosecution but refuse to leave their home.  "I'll tell my sister this," she says, "This will bring them so much joy....they will tell the whole community and tell each other 'people are still thinking about us...they care'".
