As many of you know I have 4 children who are Chinese and have made wonderful friendships in China. I just received an urgent email through secure channels and am asking for prayer for dear friends who minister in China. I can't risk giving details for their safety's sake, but God knows the problems with the officials and I'm asking you terrific prayer warriors to pray for this family in a time of crisis. Please ask Our Lady of Sheshang and Cardinal Kung to intercede from Heaven for this family, as they are in danger. All the good that they do could end as they could be expelled from the country due to a misunderstanding.
As I hear more, I'll update you. Please pray!
UPDATE Nov. 25*******
I finally heard from my friends. The good news is that they are not in jail or being deported. The bad news is that the govt. ordered that they close the clinic and sent police to supervise. It was so hard for them to do this, especially as several patients came during the shut-down and they had to turn them away, as the police were watching. They cannot even see patients in their home.
They need prayers about being able to continue legally, as they do not believe that God wants them to leave. They also need their visas extended. So it is a mix of news, but we know that God is totally in control, not the government.
Thank you for praying for these amazing people and their associates. I'll post when I hear more. Please keep praying. I do believe that Cardinal Kung is a powerful intercessor.

Still no word, and it is not safe to contact them. They have to find a way to initiate the contact.
Thanks for the prayers, and please keep it up. I know that Cardinal Kung is a powerful intercessor in Heaven, and we're talking with him often at our house.
