ChinaAid's new 'Crime of Fraud' report
Our team released an in-depth 'Crime of Fraud' report on January 26th detailing the CCP's brutal tactic of charging Christians with fake 'fraud' crimes to justify longer and harsher sentences. Officials often claim tithes and offerings are fraud and claim pastors make an excessive amount of money. Read our full report here.
Pray for all Chinese Christians suffering under these fake criminal allegations.
Guangzhou Church branch raided
ChinaAid reported on the January 7th raid against the Guangzhou Bible Reformed Church, Dashi Branch, when Christians were praying during mealtime. Officials interrogated believers, claimed they were looking into illegal activities, and demanded ID. Read more about the horrific persecution against this church.
Pray for Lawyer Qin, his family, loved ones, and his persecutors.
Bengbu Christians prosecuted for 'fraud'
Sadly, we learned earlier this week that Pastor Wan Changchun, Elder Xue Shaoqing, Cao Binting, and Wan Chunqin were prosecuted on suspicion of 'fraud.' Here's the beautiful letter Pastor Wan's wife wrote and published to commemorate his 43rd birthday.
Pray for Pastor Wan, Xue, Cao, Wan, and their persecutors.
Preacher Dai Zhichao completes detention
Preacher Dai Zhichao of Chengdu Early Rain Covenant Church finished a 30-day criminal detention and returned home on the evening of January 9th. Preacher Dai was put "under "release on bail pending trial," which means he will have some restrictions in the next year. Here's how Preacher Dai shared the Gospel with other inmates!
Pray for Preacher Dai, his family, and their persecutors.
