Zili Church Christans charged with fraud
ChinaAid's media team reported on three Christians from Zili Church in Sichuan who were charged with alleged "fraud." The three believers, named Liu, Fan, and Yue were listed as suspects in a fraud case related to tithes and offerings. Read Liu's prayer request calling on the Lord to "keep watch over the Zili Church" during the 'investigation.'
Pray for Liu, Fan, Yue, and their persecutors.  
New Hope House Church raided
Police raided New Hope House church in Guangdong province on August 20th and took away Preachers Lan Yi and Zeng Hu. Reports at the time said the two clergy were administrately detained for several days, while others believers taken by police were released. Here's how police also raided a children's summer camp in Hebei province around the same time.
Pray for Lan, Zeng, New Hope Church, and their persecutors.
