Prayer: This Christian Pastor and Family Detained in China for Exposing Government Crackdown on Churches"[Pastor Wen] is a man with integrity and passion who is always ready to help others.

The Communist Party in China is believed to be becoming progressively more suspicious of the influence of Christianity, which is experiencing significant growth in China. Pastor Wen Xiaowu and his wife, both of whom provided legal defense counsel for churches affected by an ongoing cross demolition campaign, were criminally detained on April 26, and charged with "gathering a crowd to disturb social order." China Aid sources fear for the couple's future. (Chinese police clash with Sunday morning worshipers/screengrab via China Aid)
Xiaowu's family members, however, state they believe the detentions are in response to the couple's meetings with officials from the U.S. Consulate in Shanghai and a number of foreign journalists, during which they released developments on the cross demolitions. (Photo: Reuters/Kim Kyung-Hoon)
