(China)–Voice of the Martyrs reports that a Pastor Bian, the only pastor in Datong, of China’s Shanxi province, is trying to continue his ministry, despite government attempts to remove him. Police arrested him a month ago for refusing government orders to give up his church, but have since released him. In the meantime, Pastor Bian’s congregation is asking for prayer as the Religious Affairs Bureau continues to investigate the case, looking for grounds to remove Bian from the church.
