The group said Zhang Geming and Sun Qingwen were sentenced on June 29 to "re-education through labor," an extrajudicial punishment that avoids a trial.

The Aid Association said the two were evangelical ministers from the neighboring province of Henan. Four Shandong ministers detained with them were released after paying fines of $131 each.

Many Christians in China attend house 'churches' which are not registered or regulated by the state. These home churches are prosecuted under China law as 'cults', because they have not followed the path of state regulation through registration.

Pray for them.
