In October 2025, Chinese authorities arrested Pastor Ezra Jin Mingri, founder of Zion Church, along with dozens of church leaders. This is the largest crackdown on an independent Christian church in China since the Cultural Revolution. (reuters.com)
Zion Church, founded in 2007, quietly grew into a nationwide network, reaching thousands daily through online and in-person worship. Its mission: to worship freely with Christ as the sole Head of the church, and serve communities with love and grace. (washingtonpost.com)
The charges? “Illegal use of information networks” — widely seen as a pretext to suppress faith.

Grace Jin Drexel addressed U.S. lawmakers with a powerful testimony:
“I am sometimes indeed fearful — after all, I know that I am seeking to expose and hold to account the second most powerful country in the world. Yet as a Christian, I believe that we are asked to take courage and speak the truth, and that the God who created Heaven and Earth will stand by my side.” (cecc.gov)
She described the brutal arrests — over 30 pastors and staff taken, families torn apart, and her father’s health at risk.
Then came the reveal:
“Even in the darkest moments, when my father and dozens of others were wrongfully imprisoned, God’s power has been unmistakably at work — strengthening our faith, multiplying the church, and inspiring thousands to pray and act in His name. What was meant to crush us has only made the church grow stronger.”
This is the moment that shocked everyone in the room: persecution has not weakened Zion Church — it has strengthened it.
Grace continued:
“Despite … experiencing the despair of seeing my father and others wrongfully imprisoned, I can draw strength in knowing that my God is a good God and that even these bleakest moments might be used for bigger things, and our work is not in vain.”
“God has indeed used His power to uphold us … I believe that God is also testing us during this time, like refining gold — painful but full of love. God will not abandon us.”
Her testimony shows that even in the face of persecution, faith, courage, and prayer are unstoppable.
