To mark the 76th anniversary of Victory over Japan Day and the World Anti-Fascist War which falls on September 3, Shanxi Provincial CC&TSPM on August 29 initiated peace prayer meetings in forms of decentralization among the municipal CC&TSPMs, following the COVID-19 protocols.

In the program list released by Changzhou Church in Jiangsu on September 2, the church also launched the same prayer meetings with the theme "Peace in the World" last Friday, with sub-topics of "Stop the Plague", "Walk in the Lord’s ways", "Know Jesus", and "Pray for School Opening". There was also a sermon titled "To be a Messenger of Peace" from Rev. Peng Shengjie

Other registered churches across China conducted similar prayers meetings to remember the "V-J Day".
