A pastor, recently released after spending seven years in prison, is stranded in China without legal documentation to help him get basic services.
Reverend John Sanqiang Cao is back at home in Changsha, located in the southern Hunan province, but he does not have Chinese identification, the Associated Press (AP) reported Saturday.
Years ago, Cao studied in America, married an American woman, and the couple had children. But he felt a call on his life to return to China and tell his own people about God. It is important to note that the country’s Communist Party officials only allow state-sponsored churches.
Prior to his arrest, Cao was helping Chinese missionaries get into Myanmar where a civil war had affected many people. When he was on a return journey in 2017, officials detained him and he was later given a prison sentence.
