Christian Publishers In China Endure Harsh Conditions In Prison 

admin May 17, 2026

Chang Yuchun and his wife, Li Chenhui, remain in brutal conditions in separate prisons in Xi’an City, Shaanxi province, China.  

The couple was involved in printing Christian literature and materials in Xi’an in 2015. In July 2020, their company was raided and closed. State security police seized more than 210,000 Christian books.  

That same month, Chang Yuchun and Li Chenhui were detained and arrested. They were sentenced in 2021 for illegally printing materials without the proper licenses.  

In prison, they have endured torture, starvation, and other harsh treatment from the prison guards and other prisoners. Their health has deteriorated rapidly, according to their son. Chang Yuchun has now developed a serious spinal condition and is struggling to eat, while Li Chenhui is facing major headaches, dizziness, and ongoing abuse from guards.


International Christian Concern has served as a monitor for Christian Persecution since 1995, specifically focused on persecution stemming from Marxism, Radical Islam, and social and cultural discrimination globally.
