“Unconscionable and Inhumane”: Son Reveals CCP Fraud Charges Against Elderly House Church Leaders In Xi’an, three leaders of the Light of Zion Church face lengthy prison terms after prosecutors charged them with fraud for receiving voluntary offerings and tithes. Pastor Gao Quanfu, 69, was detained in May 2025, followed by his wife Pang Yu and Pastor Tang Bingyi. Formal criminal detention followed in September. Defense attorneys have been repeatedly threatened. Authorities reclassified church donations as criminal proceeds, a tactic critics say aims to suppress independent worship. Gao’s son Gao Pu declared the treatment of his elderly parents “unconscionable and inhumane.” As China’s house churches endure intensifying pressure, these faithful leaders remain steadfast, their case underscoring the urgent need to defend religious freedom. Stand with Light of Zion Church, share this story, pray for their release, and advocate for religious freedom today!
