A church in northeastern China's Jilin province held an online autumn harvest thanksgiving praise meeting.

Senior Pastor Yan Peng of Haikou Road Church in Changchun city, with the pastoral staff, organize an online Thanksgiving celebration on November 6, according to the church.

Before the service, pastors contacted their staff workers, and established a temporary thanksgiving praise group, so that believers could worship God through "meeting in the cloud". They expressed their gratitude and praise to God through WeChat voice and video recordings.

After the opening prayer, the choir presented the dance "Sing Hallelujah". After the poem reading, another group presented the dances "We Walk Together on This Road" and "Good Co-workers". There were a total of nearly 60 programs from fellowships, groups, and individuals.

In his final prayer, Pastor Zhang Xizhi said they had a different thanksgiving day this year and that although they could not meet in the church, the epidemic could not prevent them from praising with gratitude.
