Jiangxi churches participate in the 2023 Hakka Sacred Music Worship Event in Ganzhou City.
At Gospel Church in Zhanggong District, Ganzhou City, on October 4, the municipal CC&TSPM hosted the 2023 Hakka Christian Sacred Music Worship Event, according to the CCC&TSPM.
The worship event featured a rich program that included hymns performed by the choir of the Gospel Church in Ruijin City and the Hakka Choir of Ganzhou. Additionally, the folk music ensemble of Zhanggong District delivered a rendition entitled "The Miraculous Pen of Divine Work." The Gongjiang Church in Yudu County showcased a hymn with a suona horn, while the Longnan County Church Choir performed a hymn with traditional Hakka folk elements. The Yudu Suona, also known as Hakka Suona, is a traditional wind and percussion musical tradition from Jiangxi Province.
Rev. Lai Hongying, chairperson of the municipal TSPM, delivered a sermon with the title "Gospel Reaches the Hakka," citing Ephesians 2:19–22 and Colossians 1:28–29.
This Hakka Sacred Music Worship Event was a practice of localizing Christianity in the Hakka churches of southern Jiangxi.
With the literal meaning of "guest families," Hakka people are a specific group within the broader Han Chinese population. Their ancestral homes are predominantly in the Hakka-speaking provincial regions of Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Sichuan, Hunan, Zhejiang, Hainan, Guizhou, and some areas of Taiwan.
