In Fujian Province, a church in Zhangzhou City held a groundbreaking ceremony for the reconstruction of the temple on Tuesday.
Pastor Zhuang Jingcheng, president and chairman of Zhangzhou CC&TSPM (Christian Council&Three-Self Patriotic Movement), shared a sermon entitled Let's Rise up and Build. He encouraged the staff workers and believers of Lintou Church in Sidu Town, Zhao'an County, to build the Lord's temple with one heart and mind. He also urged them to believe the Lord's promise: "The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house, and in this place, I will grant peace." (Haggai 2:9)
Elder Chen Youxiong, chairman of the Zhao'an County TSPM, presided over the groundbreaking service that was conducted simply according to the requirement of coronavirus pandemic prevention and control.
The staff of the Zhangzhou Municipal CC&TSPM visited the Sidu Church in Zhao'an County and the Pantuo Church in Zhangpu County on the afternoon of the same day. They inspected the religious sites which have carried out the "four entries" campaign(the national flag of China, the Constitution, laws and regulations, core socialist values, and fine traditional Chinese culture shall enter religious venues). Visiting some staff workers, they prepared for church reopening.

2021年2月23日，福建省漳州诏安县四都镇林头基督教会举行圣殿重建奠基礼拜。
漳州市基督教两会主席会长庄静城牧师以《我们起来建造吧》为题勉励林头教会众同工和弟兄姐妹要同心合意共建主的圣殿，要深信主的应许：“这殿后来的荣耀必大过先前的荣耀，在这地方我（主）必赐平安。”（该2:9）
诏安县基督教三自爱国运动委员会主席陈友雄长老主持了奠基礼拜。由于处在“疫情防控”时期，“典礼”简洁进行。
当天下午，漳州市基督教两会同工还走访诏安县四都基督教会、漳浦县盘陀基督教会，检查“四进”宗教场所，探望慰问部分同工，为教堂恢复礼拜做准备。
