President Bush’s two-day visit to Beijing beginning on November 19 proved to be a memorable event for house church leader Pastor Zhang Mingxuan. He was transported by several security agents along with his son from his Beijing detention center to a government guest hotel in Shaqi County of Henan Province the day before Bush’s arrival. They were released the day after the President’s strong message to Chinese Communist authorities about advancing religious freedom.
