Unregistered Beijing Church Faces Reported Leader Detentions Just Days Before Xi–Trump Talks Chinese authorities have reportedly detained multiple pastors and coworkers from Beijing Jiaquan Church, an unregistered urban house-church network with more than two decades of ministry and more than 1,000 believers across Beijing and other cities. ChinaAid has firsthand accounts but has not yet confirmed names, numbers, locations, or charges. Jiaquan grew among younger Christians through worship, discipleship, and the Noah Music School, which trained house-church musicians. Advocates are urging disclosure of the detainees’ whereabouts and access to independent counsel. Share this report, pray for Jiaquan’s detained pastors and workers, and urge governments to raise China’s house-church crackdown in every high-level meeting. #ReligiousFreedom# #HouseChurch# #ChinaAid# #JiaquanChurch# #PersecutedChurch# (Official White House Photo by Daniel Torok)

A Newborn, a Dying Father, a Missing Pastor: Beijing’s Latest Crackdown on Faith As Washington and Beijing prepare for a September summit, Chinese authorities are widening their pressure on house churches. Early Rain Covenant Church’s Elder Li Yingqiang and Preacher Dai Zhichao face a returned “subversion” case; Vice Deacon Jia Xuewei was arrested, and Elder Yan Hong was taken twice in one week. Dai’s postpartum wife (@LindaLuhwfe) was ordered to delete an essay defending him; her WeChat account was banned when she refused. Beijing Zion Elder Wang Zhong was denied bail as his father died. Pastor Wang Sanyuan, 73, has been missing for months. Other ministers in Yunnan and Wenzhou remain detained. Read Now Pray for detained pastors and families. Share this report. Write for the imprisoned. Defend religious freedom in China now. #ChinaHouseChurches# #ReligiousFreedom# #EarlyRainChurch# #PersecutedChurch# #ChinaAid#

Global Prayer Defies China’s Escalating War on Christians More than 6,000 believers from Japan, South Korea, the United States, Australia, and beyond joined a global prayer gathering on August 9, 2026, at Living Jesus Church in Osaka and online. ChinaAid President Bob Fu outlined four intensifying trends of persecution under the CCP’s “Sinicization” policy: dismantling major house churches such as Early Rain and Beijing Zion, criminalizing ordinary worship and collecting biometric data, labeling entire congregations criminal organizations, and extending repression overseas through surveillance and intimidation. Pastor Yang Jun shared the pain of his wife’s imprisonment and family separation while urging prayer for the “Zion 8.” The monthly fasting-and-prayer movement calls the worldwide church to stand with them. #PersecutedChurchChina# #PrayForChina# #ReligiousFreedom# #ChinaAid# #HouseChurchResilience#
