Daughter of detained Chinese pastor says she has ‘hope’ after learning Trump may raise case with Xi Jinping
The daughter of a detained Chinese pastor says she finally has “hope” after learning President Donald Trump may raise her father’s case with Chinese President Xi Jinping — an appeal she says could be life-changing as his health deteriorates behind bars.
“That has given us tremendous joy and hope that we’ve just not had since the beginning,” Grace Jin Drexel said on “Fox News Sunday,” revealing she had received information that Trump is expected to mention her father Ezra Jin Mingri’s name at a summit with Xi.
“It’s been several months now, we’re just so excited, so grateful for the president,” she added.
Drexel’s father is among dozens of religious leaders affiliated with Zion Church who have been detained in China, as authorities intensify pressure on underground Christian groups.

Family members say their ability to track his condition has worsened after lawyers representing the detainees were targeted by officials, with some disbarred, detained or forced off the case.
The Drexel family says they do know, however, that Grace’s father has been unable to get the medications prescribed to treat his conditions.

“And we know prison conditions… they are horrible, so we know that we’re extremely concerned about his health,” she said.
“He has severe type 2 diabetes and without proper medication, there can be tremendous potential risk to his health even further, so we would love for him to be able to be released as soon as possible.”
The family expects Trump to mention Jin’s name at a minimum. Nevertheless, their hope for a “miracle” is still strong.
“[Mentioning his name] alone is a major victory, but our real hope is for a miracle, and that miracle would be his release, unconditionally, that he could come to the United States, be reunited with his American family,” said Grace’s husband, Bill.
“When his young sons last saw him, they were in elementary and middle school. They’re now in college and headed to college, so we were really hoping that he’s able to make it out.”
