AllGirlsAllowed.org has issued a call to prayer and fasting for China this Tuesday, March 5th that God would “bring a swift and final end to the One-Child Policy.”
On Tuesday, China will officially install Xi Jinping as President at the gathering of China’s 12th National People’s Congress in Beijing. This change in government will result in other changes which can intensify the often brutal enforcement of China’s One-Child Policy or bring it to an end. You can read more about the potential impact of this transitional event in China’s government here.
In 2011, I had the privilege of interviewing Chai Ling and hearing more of her incredible journey (see below). Ling is Founder of AllGirlsAllowed and author of A Heart for Freedom: The Remarkable Journey of a Young Dissident, Her Daring Escape, and Her Quest to Free China’s Daughters. She is a relentless activist for China’s women and girls. In December 2012, she was a plenary speaker at Urbana and last weekend at the 2013 Justice Conference in Philadelphia.
Please add this to your lenten prayers and join this important prayer effort.
