China – Christian Released after Two Years
On Feb. 8 Shuang Shuying was released from prison in China and immediately went to a local hospital to visit her deathly ill husband, 91-year-old, Hua Zaichen.
China Aid Association (CAA) reported Shuying, 79, sent a letter thanking everyone for praying and supporting her. She also revealed that while in prison she was tortured by the Public Security Bureau (PSB). "…The PSB went to my prison interrogating, threatening and harassing me numerous times," Shuying said. "They even directed other prisoners to take off all my clothes and forced me to stand alone outside in the evening without letting me sleep."
Shuying added she was slapped on her face and forced to drink her own urine. Despite these harsh conditions, Shuying's faith remained strong. "During these terrible circumstances, I prayed without ceasing. I asked God to give me strength," Shuying said. "Every time when my son came to visit me and shared with me that brothers and sisters from all over the world had been praying for me, I felt greatly strengthened and empowered which has enabled me to continue to live."
In January 2007, Shuang Shuying, and her son Pastor Hua Huiqi, were attacked and wounded by seven police officers while walking near an Olympic hotel site in Beijing. They were kicked to the ground and later taken to the Olympic police station for questioning, CAA reported. Shuying was sentenced to two years in prison, while Hua served six months.
The Voice of the Martyrs rejoices in Shuang Shuying's release. She was featured on www.prisoneralert.com, VOM's Web site listing Christian prisoners. Visitors to the site wrote more than 8,200 letters of encouragement to her.
VOM encourages you to continue praying for Shuang Shuying and her family, especially her ailing husband. Praise God for her release and ask Him to protect and encourage them during this difficult time.
