Zion Reformed Church Camp Raided
Police raided the youth summer camp of Zion Reformed Church on July 25th and placed four Christians in 15-day administrative detention. Police also confiscated children's Bibles, books, and other personal belongings. Read how Zion Reformed is committed "for the word of the Lord to spread quickly, even if our own interests will suffer as a result."
Pray for all Zion Reformed Church members and those detained.
Lawyers Blocked From Meeting Clients
Jailed human rights lawyers Yu Wensheng and Xu Yan have not been able to meet with legal counsel, as officials have rejected a legal right to visitation. This couple was intercepted by national security officers after being invited to meet with EU delegates in April 2023. Here's why the CCP has persecuted Yu and Xu so harshly.
Pray for Yu and Xu, their legal team, and their persecutors.
Officials Ignore Ilegal Investigation
Defense attorneys for Linfen Covenant House Church members accused of "fraud" informed local officials that their case was mishandled as police were not investigated for illegal evidence collection. However, officials refused to discuss the issue and called the case "cult" related. Here's why 'fraud' charges are weaponized by the CCP against Christians.
Pray for all Linfen Church members, their legal team, and their persecutors.
