The United States condemns the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s recent detention of dozens of leaders of the unregistered house Zion Church in China, including prominent pastor Mingri "Ezra" Jin.
This crackdown further demonstrates how the CCP exercises hostility towards Christians who reject Party interference in their faith and choose to worship at unregistered house churches.
We call on the CCP to immediately release the detained church leaders and to allow all people of faith, including members of house churches, to engage in religious activities without fear of retribution.
