Three House Church Buildings in Zhejiang Facing Imminent Destruction by Government
Jul 14 2007

CAA learned three well-known Prayer Mountain church buildings in Yongjia county, Wenzhou cityof Zhejiang province are facing imminent destruction by the local government.

According to reliable local church sources in Wenzhou, the three buildings built about 10 years ago in three different mountains were used primarily as prayer mountain churches. Believers go up there everyday. And up to 800 believers usually gather at every building once a month.

Sources told CAA that because there are more house churches than the government sanctioned churches, the local government has been determined to destroy these church buildings by accusing the believers as “evil cult”. The government issued an ultimatum to destroy the three church buildings by next week. Most of the local house church leaders have been threatened not to resist the government destruction effort. Otherwise they will be arrested.
