As pandemic is passing away, a long-time delayed "plucking home church" campaign is ongoing  now in China mainland.
Friends of mine in my online Bible study group/seminary have to turn off their phones for months and/or run to different provinces to hide their locations just for a Bible study or a seminary class. The app Signal for secure phone call somehow cannot be used in China anymore. When we were communicating over phone call, my friends clearly told me, anything we said now is being recorded and monitored by government.
Simultaneously, worship songs, sermon videos/recordings, any WeChat/Weibo public accounts related to Christianity are being removed from the Internet (or Chinese "internal" net). And the cleaning is so thorough as if they were there on the Internet. The "remanant" contents or accounts are fewer and fewer and it seems to be only a matter of time that they would all be "cleaned".
Please pray for the brothers and sisters in China for their safety, patience, endurance and perseverance. Pray for their joy in trial. Pray that God could continue to help them pursue truth and walk in Spirit despite all the situations ongoing. pandemic is passing away, a long-time delayed "plucking home church" campaign is ongoing  now in China mainland.

Jeni and I have an older sister named Jessica. She faithfully grew up and served the church into her early twenties. However, for the last 15 years, she's continually drifted away from the church and ultimately further from the Lord. It has often felt unclear exactly where she stands with the Lord, but sadly she's shown  that she's increasingly defensive when discussing God and faith. Please pray:
1. that God would spiritually bring her to her knees as she reads His word.
2. that she would follow through with her promises to return to church so that she can regularly intake the preaching of His word and  be part of a community of believers who will keep her accountable - unfortunately she's turned down all invitations to Berean.
3. that God would give Jeni and I wisdom, enduring love, and perseverance in our relationship with her.

1. Please pray for the salvation of my parents, sister, and brother in law. Please pray specifically that my BiL's heart would be stirred to evaluate his faith, return to church, and lead his family in this way. Also that my mom's interest in Christianity would continue to grow as it has started to change for the better over the last year.

2. Please pray for the recognition of sin and need for salvation for our non-believing youth students, and for the perseverance and deepening of the faith for those who are saved.  - Samantha H.
