Late last month, Dr Bob Fu (also known as Xiqiu Fu), the founder and president of ChinaAid, prayed publicly at the National Mall in Washington DC, asking God to make members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) repent.
Prior to praying, Dr Fu learned that the Chinese Communist Party had just dispatched agents in the United States to harass his family. “Heidi, my wife, called me,” he said, “and told me that the Chinese Communist Party ‘has sent their spies to our house. Now they are harassing me and our children.’”
When the prayer meeting ended, Texas police officers dispersed harassers, some waving signs that read, “Xiqiu Fu started the coronavirus.”
ChinaAid is an international human rights organisation which exposes religious persecution by the CCP and promotes religious freedom for all.
Dr Fu, born and raised in China, a student leader in the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, converted to Christianity while in China. During this time, he worked in a government job during the day and led house church services at night. When authorities discovered Dr Fu’s ministry, they imprisoned him and Heidi. With help from then President Clinton, Dr Fu exiled to the US.
Although the CCP demonstrated animosity for Dr Fu in the past, they never threatened him so blatantly. Rarely do foreign citizens so openly threaten American citizens in the United States.
Dr Fu and his family are in a safe location, protected by local police and federal law enforcement agencies. The situation is being investigated.
