Q: Hi, I am looking to join a gospel choir in Shanghai. Can anyone help?

I have been singing for many years in different capacities and am currently a member of two gospel choirs in London (Enchorus and CK Gospel). I have been a member of Enchorus since they first began in 2013 and have been a member of CK Gospel since August 2016. My intention is to continue with my singing and performances whilst residing in Shanghai.

A heads up, new China law requires recordable tracking cameras at all churches in China so they know who the trouble makers are for future torture.http://mashable.com/2017/04/03/china-surveillance-cameras-christians/

icnif77:

I saw few churches in China .... last one in Kaifeng, close to the Uni Campus, which was remodeled to the book-storage-kind-of.

Another one in Jianou, Fujian, which was also given to the city's 'librarian'.

Now in West, churches should all have cameras, similar to Supermarkets, 'cause you never know, your church leader .....LOLOL-at my new religious term-LOL ...might be a child molester ..... bastards!
