Pray for China (Nov 3-9, 2025)
Systematically and Strategically Interceding for All of China
Each week I share short profiles about which places to pray for in China each day. Included in each introduction are links to more resources about the city and province to which it belongs. Follow me on X (@chinaadventures) to receive reminders each day.
*Scroll to the bottom for my explanation of how I decide which cities to pray for daily.
Also, on my weekly China Compass podcast I usually talk through the places targeted for prayer that week, sharing any stories that come to mind. I was NOT able to do so this week, in part due to my experience being deported from Egypt early Saturday morning. You can listen to that episode here.

*Beginning in early 2024, I began working through each of China’s 31 provinces/regions once per month (on shorter months I skip a smaller, less-populated province), highlighting one new place per day, starting with the most populated in each province. More than a year later, I continue working my way down through each province’s prefecture/city list by population (greatest to least). The goal is to eventually pray for every prefecture, city, and county in China, the vast majority which the average western Christian has never even heard of.
Been busy brother. Be in His hands. Love you and praying for you and your family.
