Pastor John Cao's Petition + Sponsoring Chinese Pastors│Prison Pulpit #96 [China Compass]
I'm your China travel guide in exile, Missionary Ben, back in Oklahoma for a few days before returning (finally) to my overseas home in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Follow me on Twitter/X ( @chinaadventures ) where I share a new Chinese city to pray for every single day. Email me with any questions, comments, or complaints: chinacompass @ privacyport.com. Finally, check out my personal landing page PrayGiveGo.us for everything else, including our missions website, substack, books, and more… Why the Prison Pulpit? The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison. (Here you’ll find some free PDF books by Richard Wurmbrand: https://richardwurmbrandfoundation.org/ ) Help Bring Pastor John Cao Home https://revelationmedia.com/bringcaohome Help Us Equip and Encourage China’s Persecuted Church First, please pray for these Chinese leaders! Not only do they risk their lives to preach the Gospel within Communist China, but they also risk their freedom just to receive training that we easily take for granted. Pray that God would protect them, provide for them, equip them, and prepare them to continue serving faithfully in one of the most difficult mission fields on earth. Second, help sponsor a Chinese pastor and send him to one of these two Great Commission Conferences for the Chinese Church! The need is roughly $1k per attendee , and we are expecting 60 total. Nearly $45k has already been raised, which leaves about $15k to go. One final thought: whoever gives to wholly “sponsor” one Chinese missionary, I will personally greet them on your behalf and provide you with their name (or nickname), and general location of ministry within China, so you can continue to “adopt” them in prayer for going forward. Online donations can be made via the giving link at MCI3.org ( https://givebutter.com/missioncatalyst ). Checks can be sent to: Mission Catalyst / PO Box 73047 / Houston, TX 77272 (Memo: China) If you have any questions or would like to confirm your sponsorship or “adoption” of a Chinese missionary, feel free to email (bfwesten AT gmail dot com) anytime or donate directly at: MCI3.org Pray for China Cities of the Week (Aug 17-23): https://chinacall.substack.com/p/pray-for-china-aug-17-23-2026 Follow China Compass Thank you for listening!
