Recently Lecheng Church of Leqing, Wenzhou, held the inauguration of a mini fire station, opening a new model as a venue for religious activities, which provides fire extinguishment, inspection, propaganda as well as counseling.
According to the State Administration for Religious Affairs, the mini firehouse set up by the management council of the church has four fire patrol cars and fire-fighting equipment. A fire inspector and a fire safety administrator are responsible for daily fire safety inspection within the range of the church and surrounding communities, fire prevention publicity and stamping out early-rising fire disasters. They also work for the construction, drill and training of a volunteer fire troop.
Meanwhile, a duty system will be established to ensure a watchkeeper on duty.
