Records indicate that the Christian Gospel was carried to China perhaps as early as the 5th century. Despite frequent misunderstandings, mistakes, and pitfalls, the Gospel message is still being spread today. Conservative estimates are that there are over 10 million Christians in China today. Here are links to a variety of Christian and non-sectarian charitable organizations serving China today.
Created in 1985 on the initiative of Chinese Christians, Amity promotes education, social services, health, and rural development from China's coastal provinces in the east to the minority areas of the west. Amity sponsors many English teachers in colleges, schools, and universities throughout China. The Amity News Service provides regular updates from the China Christian Council. Information and reports about Amity's many service projects throughout China can be found in the foundation's excellent Amity Newsletter publication.

Philip Hayden
Foundation
The Philip Hayden Foundation runs two excellent children's villages in China. We visited their Shepherd's Field village in Langfang City during our 2006 China Heritage trip. This village hosts the "Hands of Hope" wall built by families with children adopted from China to honor all of the China's children. Click here to see photos from our visit.

History:
Founder of China Inland Missions, Hudson Taylor felt called by God to the mission field very early in his life. Arriving in Shanghai in 1854, Taylor worked with other Christian missionaries in the "treaty port" cities. He soon discovered that the Christian gospel had barely penetrated the vast provinces in China's interior. This article does an excellent job of telling how Taylor overcame each trial through faith to establish churches throughout China's interior provinces.
