Chinese Christians Forbidden from Holding Prayer Meeting

Chinese Christians were forced to cancel a prayer meeting after government authorities said they did not have permission to gather together. It is reported by ChristianHeadlines.com.

As it is reported, Bishop Stephen Yang Xiangtai called Christians for a prayer meeting after three churches in Handan province were vandalized. A day of prayer was planned, and the Christians were set to meet in one of the vandalized churches.

However, authorities from the Religious Affairs Bureau stepped in and prohibited the churches from engaging in the prayer meeting, claiming they did not have permission to gather Christians from different districts.

Some clerics were even placed under surveillance after the prayer meeting was cancelled, and citizens were prevented from entering the village where the meeting was supposed to take place.
