Elder Zhang Chunlei, along with several other members of the Ren'ai Reformed Church, were arrested by authorities on March 16th, 2021 (see this page). The church elder's trial was held during November 2022; yet, in the months that have followed, his family received no news in regards to the verdict.
Elder Zhang's lawyer reports that the imprisoned Christian leader has been optimistic and remains in good spirits. However, he suddenly came down with a bout of cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder), resulting in severe pain. Although he was sent to Sanjiang hospital for treatment in early August, at last report, there has been no update provided about his condition. This situation has raised new concerns amongst Elder Zhang's family; this time, relating to his health and well-being in prison.
Please lift up Elder Zhang and his physical condition before God's throne of grace, praying that this imprisoned believer will receive divine healing and strength.
Also prayerfully remember his concerned family and church members as they await news of his well-being, asking that each one of them would experience the Lord's comforting presence and peace.
Pray that Elder Zhang will soon be freed from custody and that, in the meantime, he will serve as a testimony of God's salvation and grace to all those whom he encounters during imprisonment.
