The Chinese government’s crackdown on Christian churches is getting worse as it now includes even state-sanctioned churches, religious authorities in China revealed.

State workers are now forcibly removing more and more crosses from church buildings, with the latest crackdown targeting a lower Dafei Catholic Church in Wenzhou.
Church-goers sang Christian hymns as their church cross came down, one of the parishioners said.
“(The) cross is in our hearts. The demolition is impossible to bear,” the parishioner who identified himself as Chen said.
