Three churches in Jilin, China, registered with the government, participated in an early National Day performance organized by religious circles in the county. The performers sang patriotic "red" songs. More than 100 churches in the county watched the performance.

According to a news report from the Gospel Times, a Christian news portal in China, on June 21, 2024, a grand cultural performance was held at Nanguan Church in Nong’an County, Changchun City, Jilin Province. This event celebrated the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and was named “Prosperous Birthday, Dream with the Nation.” It was organized as part of a major county-wide activity by the United Front Work Department of the Nong’an County Committee.

The church was adorned with red flags and a red Tiananmen Square backdrop. A troupe of Christians in red dresses began the program with a song and dance performance titled “Glorious China.” Subsequent programs included “Glorious Chinese Dream” and “Abundant Blessings for China.”

The report also highlighted other performances such as “Love My China” and “China in Full Bloom,” which conveyed respect for China's traditional culture and expressed Christians’ love for their country and religion. Songs like “Navigating the New Era” and “To Sing the Most Beautiful Song To Mother” reflected believers’ expectations for a new era and loyalty to the Party.

Finally, the performance titled “Prosperous Great China” embodied deep emotion for the motherland and dedication to faith. The event aimed to promote core socialist values and the Sinicization of Christianity while displaying a favorable image of the Christian community.

The church’s choir spent two months rehearsing for this performance. Various forms of celebratory activities took place to inspire Christians to be guided by core socialist values and demonstrate love for the Party, country, and socialism through concrete actions.

The main purpose of this event is to promote what is termed as "sinicization of Christianity." Critics argue that it represents political domestication rather than cultural assimilation. They suggest that while it claims to glorify God, it ensures that religion submits to the regime established by the Chinese Communist Party.
