The Voice of the Martyrs - Help Christians in China Facing Intense Opposition

Christians in China Are Paying a Price
Despite continuous pressure and oppression from the Communist government, Christians in China refuse to compromise the gospel.

In recent years, restrictive religious regulations and persecution have increased significantly.

  • Hundreds of churches have been closed.
  • Pastors and church members have been arrested or detained.
  • Online Bible sales have been prohibited.
  • The Communist government has installed hundreds of millions of facial recognition cameras, many in or near churches in order to identify those attending worship services.
  • Church leaders are continually pressured to join the government-controlled Three-Self Patriotic Movement.
  • Teaching anyone under age 18 about the Christian faith is illegal.

Christians in China continue to proclaim the gospel under intense scrutiny from local authorities, and they willingly pay the price for doing so.

Your gifts will encourage and strengthen Christians in China, helping to meet the needs that arise when they are persecuted for their faith. Some of these needs include living expenses and legal assistance.
