In Memory of Rev. Lin Shengben, China's Sacred Music Pioneer
China's sacred music pioneer Rev. Lin Shengben passed away in Shanghai at the age of 98 on March 6, 2025. The hymnal books he compiled filled the gap in the church's sacred music needs during the early years of the reform and opening-up, and the sacred music training class he initiated in Xiamen trained a large number of choir leaders for churches nationwide.
