Foreword:

Greetings! We are China Christian Daily, the first comprehensive English Christian news website about the church in China. Thank you for your sincere love, prayers, and contributions to the Chinese church. 

Recently, several foreign Christian organizations visited China, reinforcing global Christian fellowship and strengthening ties with local churches.

In Shanghai, the China-U.S. Christian Fellowship launched, fostering spiritual connections between Chinese and American Christians. In Beijing, the Hour of Power delegation exchanged ideas on church service and pastoral care. The Outreach Foundation, active in China since 1994, continued its longstanding relationship with Hangzhou’s largest church and other places. In Xi'an, China Partner visited local leaders as long-time friends.

International events like the inaugural Amity Cup Ping Pong Tournament brought together participants from 32 countries for charity and friendship. Similarly, the YWCA of Singapore’s visit to China’s YWCA emphasized collaboration in social service and women’s empowerment.

These connections extend beyond Sino-American relations. A Seoul church visited Shaanxi CC&TSPM, while the United Evangelical Mission engaged with Christian leaders in Beijing and Jiangsu.

In a world marked by increasing division, these interactions remind us of the unifying power of faith. As an American pastor stated, “We continue to believe in the power of friendship and relationship.”
