Info on Lenkoran

Lenkoran is a very important city, because it is the last good sized city that is close to the border of Iran. It is in the southern part of Azerbaijan on the Caspian Sea and is around 25 miles to the border of Iran. It's population is around 45,000 people who mostly are Iranian Talysh, because Azerbaijan's southern border used to stretch further south into part of Iran until it got pushed more to the north where is sits to this day. I believe the shrinking of Azerbaijan's border happened around 1991. And that is why a lot of the population of Lenkoran is Iranian Talysh. So getting the good news to be spread in Lenoran is very important to getting the good news of Jesus into the northern part of Iran and from there into the rest of Iran.
