Rev. Rob Schenck participated in the recent Congressional Working Group on Religious Freedom chaired by his own congressman, Rep. Frank Wolf, (R-10th/VA). Rep. Wolf has long been an outspoken advocate of religious liberty here and abroad.

When the discussion turned to China’s egregious persecution of Christians and others, Rep. Wolf gave an impassioned plea to go after that country and “change its government.” He suggested urging Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to appoint and new and aggressive undersecretary that will push China on human and religious rights.

We urge all Christians of conscience to contact their representatives and senators to press them to take action now to stop the heinous atrocities in China and place real penalties on that government for doing so.
