	Třináctiletá nevlastní dcera kubánského pastora zadržena a vyslýchána.
	V pondělí 5. února zadržely kubánské úřady třináctiletou nevlastní dceru kubánského pastora. Tento muž, Delmides Fidalgo López, je prezidentem evangelikální skupiny Křesťanské Hnutí Kuby (CMC). Leyani Domínguez Velásquez byla zadržena tento týden již podruhé ve městě Bonaventura v provincii Holguin. Během hodinového výslechu ji úředníci údajně nutili, aby obvinila svého otčíma ze sexuálního obtěžování. Právník Kubánské Nadace pro Lidská Práva Juan Carlos González Leiva dodal, že jí úředníci vyhrožovali „převozem do Havany a výslechem na detektoru lži, pokud nebude s obviněním otčíma souhlasit.“ CMC je skupina pastorů a jiných křesťanů, kteří se věnují hlásání evangelia a připomínají různé uváděné případy porušování lidských práv na Kubě.

	TEENAGE STEPDAUGHTER OF CUBAN PASTOR DETAINED, INTERROGATED Source: BosNewsLife On Monday, Feb. 5, Cuban authorities detained the 13-year-old stepdaughter of Delmides Fidalgo López, a Christian pastor and president of the evangelical group, Christian Movement of Cuba (CMC). Leyani Domínguez Velásquez was detained for the second time in less than one week in the town of Buenaventura in Holguin province. During the one-hour interrogation officials allegedly tried to force the girl to accuse her stepfather of molesting her. Cuban Human Rights Foundation lawyer Juan Carlos González Leiva added that authorities threatened to “transport her to Havana to put her through a lie detector test if she did not acquiesce.” The CMC is a group of pastors and other Christians dedicated to preaching the gospel and drawing attention to alleged human rights violations in Cuba. * HCJB Global Voice continues to air Spanish programs to Cuba via shortwave from South America. Hundreds of listeners have enrolled in the ministry’s Bible Institute of the Air, a Spanish correspondence program incorporating radio broadcasts. In addition, numerous pastors’ workshops held in conjunction with Leadership Resources International have been held in Cuba since the mid-1990s. UPDATE: CHINESE HOUSE CHURCH ADVOCATE FORMALLY CHARGED Source: China Aid Association House church activist Hua Huiqi was formally arrested by the Beijing Public Security Bureau on Thursday, Feb. 8, on charges of obstructing justice. The charges came nearly two weeks after he was detained by authorities on Jan. 26. Hua and his 76-year-old mother, Shuang Shuying, were beaten by police at that time, and Hua was tortured by having ice-cold water poured over him in below-freezing weather. His mother was formally arrested on Friday, Feb. 9, for willfully damaging public and private property. China Aid Association President Bob Fu, one of Hua’s former co-workers, said the charge against him is “totally baseless, and it’s clear a step of revenge against Hua’s Christian ministry to the oppressed.” MINISTRY EVALUATES U.S. SEMINARY TRAINING FOR CHINESE PASTORS Source: Mission Network News Erik Burklin of China Partner Ministries (CPM) says a partner’s report shows that the situation for Christianity in China is improving, resulting in more house church leaders being able to get training and start training schools for emerging Christian leaders. CPM is facilitating this by sponsoring Chinese students at U.S. universities. “We help with their living expenses, and then we partner with seminaries, such as Denver Seminary, that have committed to pay for the tuition,” Burklin said. “So together we give the opportunity for a Chinese person to come to our country to get theological training.” However, CPM is re-evaluating the effectiveness of the program which has sponsored five individuals so far. “Our main concern is that even though this is a ministry that we would like to make available to Chinese leaders, a majority of these individuals then, once they have received the education, do not return to China,” he said. Regardless, Burklin believes leadership training is critical to future church growth in China. CPM has trained more than 3,600 future pastors in 16 different Chinese cities during 45 pastoral training courses since 1991.

On each day of the conference, people working in commercial radio will be invited to special sessions where they can share their thoughts, ideas and concerns about commercial radio in general and what place Christianity has in their workplace and on the air. Practitioners and key figures from the commercial radio industry have been invited to encourage, challenge and inspire, and there will be plenty of time to meet fellow professionals currently active in this exciting and fast-changing arena. “This is the first time that those of us in commercial radio will have our own sessions at the conference,” said stream producer Colin Lowther of Bradford-based HCJB-UK and Whistling Frog Productions. “Christians working in commercial radio can often feel isolated in such a competitive field and this new stream will be a great chance for us to meet and learn from each other. It’s also an opportunity for those who’ve had little contact with the Churches Media Council in the past, to find out about new ideas which are coming forward for the future.” The annual conference will take place at the Hayes Conference Centre in Swanwick, Derbyshire, June 11-13.
