The China Christian Independent Church or the CCIC (Шаблон:Zh) was an independent Chinese Christian organization established by Yu Guozhen in Shanghai in the early-20th century.

History

The CCIC was established in 1906 as a Chinese organization upholding the three-self principles of self-governance, self-support, and self-propagation. In 1910, it established its own periodical The Chinese Christian (Шаблон:Zh), which was later renamed The Sacred News (Шаблон:Zh).[1]

By 1924, it had 330 branch churches and over 20,000 Chinese Christian members.[2] Many of its branches were former churches established by Presbyterian or Congregationalist missionaries, but wanting to be independent from foreign control.[1]
