(Christian Post) – Chinese Communist authorities reportedly raided a children’s Bible class Saturday morning, shutting down a large underground church and confiscating 4,000 books. The latest raid, according to South China Morning Post, happened at Rongguili Church in Guangzhou, which became the third prominent Protestant unregistered church to be closed by officials this season. Over 60 officers stormed the class,

investigating the church until the evening and confiscating church property, including 4,000 books. A Rongguili church member, who wasn’t named, shared what happened when police came: “They read out law enforcement notices declaring our venue was an illegal gathering [that had engaged in] illegal publishing and illegal fundraising and confiscated all Bibles.” Officers recorded the identity of the worshipers, including the children, and took their phones.
