Foreword:

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

Jesus claims that he came not to be served, but to serve. With the spirit of "serving", Christianity in China seeks to serve unprivileged and forgotten people in the great land. Faith-based charities such as Amity Foundation, YMCA-YWCA, Christian foundations, and other unknown organizations strive to work for the benefits of disadvantaged people in various fields, but the majority of them are often financially insufficient. September 9 marks China's largest charity day when charities raise funds on the Internet to support their events, initiating a fundraising campaign among Christian charities and the Christian community. This month we share their stories and work with you. 

You can also read trending news as well as features about Fukien University, the Courtyard of the Happy Way, and why people choose the house church.
