A special campaign was done in the En‘guang Church in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang which aims to stop complaining in the congregation.

The campaign began on June 6 and urged the congregation and the entire church to "not-complain" for 21 days. This campaign, the church stressed, aims to develop a habit of positive thinking without complaint or criticism for the congregation.

Each participant would be wearing a purple bracelet in one of their wrists and they would move the bracelet to the other wrist when they said something in a complaint or criticism. The campaign would then restart the next day.

Normally, it would take a person several months to complete the 21-day campaign and it sometimes ranges from four to eight months.

The church said that they do not need to restart it if you do not verbally stress your criticisms or complaints. "When you're practicing it, the thoughts of complaints and criticisms would start to disappear." the church said.

The church had actually used a similar campaign for the deacons March 16 last year.
