Elderly Mother Sentenced To Prison for Two Years

"As for the Almighty, we cannot find Him; He is excellent in power, In judgment and abundant justice; He does not oppress. Therefore men fear Him; He shows no partiality to any who are wise of heart.”"(Job 37: 23-24)

This week the Voice of the Martyrs-USA sent out their weekly news and prayer alert and as I read through the requests I was amazed at how age doesn't seem to matter to those who persecute Christians. Read on to see what I mean.

Update on Elderly Mother of House Church Leader - China Aid Association
On February 26, Beijing house-church leader Hui Huiqi's 77-year-old mother, Shuang Shuying, was sentenced to two years in prison by Beijing Chongwen District People's Court. She was charged with willfully damaging public and private property. In January, Hui Huiqi and his elderly mother were attacked by police officers while they were walking near a 2008 Olympic hotel site in Beijing, China. Shuang Shuying was arrested when she sought information from the Chongwen District Office about her son, who was arrested on January 26. Continue to pray for this family as both mother and son are in prison. Ask God to comfort and protect them. I Peter 5:10-11

This is amazing isn't it?  Here we read that the police were the ones doing the attacking and this elderly woman is the one sentenced to prison.  Pray for justice in this case.
