However, in a recent speech the provincial official in charge of religious affairs hinted at Communist Party discomfort at how fast congregations were growing in what is already considered Chinas most Christian region. More than one million of Wenzhous nine million residents are thought to be practicing Protestants, according to some estimates.
Feng Zhili, the chairman of Zhejiangs ethnic and religious affairs committee, said Christianitys growth had been too excessive and too haphazard.
China is an officially atheist state that only offers formal recognition to five religions: Buddhism, Catholicism, Islam, Protestantism and Taoism.
Religious beliefs are officially discouraged, particularly among the Communist Partys more than 85 million members.
However, support is offered to many officially sanctioned churches and some within the Communist Party view religion as a useful ally in maintaining social stability.
Xi Jinping, the president, has been quoted as saying that China is losing its moral compass and thinks traditional faiths such as Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism could help fill a void that has allowed corruption to flourish, Reuters reported last year, citing sources close to the leadership.

HAZLETON On Thursday, workers finally started removing the debris from an apartment building in Hazleton that was hit by fire a year ago.
Its not pretty, and its loud, but neighbors who live along McKinley Street in Hazleton are happy to hear the sounds of a demolition cleanup.
It feels good, finally, finally, you know? After almost a year of it just sitting there, finally, it feels good, said Belisa Ramos of Hazleton.
Before the pile of debris, here stood a vacant home. It was an apartment building that was hit by fire last April.
But the landlord, Lyla Younes, lives in New Jersey and only paid Penn Earthworks last year to take the building down, not to clear the debris.
The city didn`t have the money to clean it up on our own dime, and we needed to figure out a way to hold the owners responsible, said Hazleton Police Chief Frank DeAndrea.
Chief DeAndrea said the city cited the landlord for $30,000 worth of code violations. Officials promised to charge her if she didnt clean up the mess. This week, she paid the rest of what she owed for the demolition.
Another example of blight that city officials are hoping to get rid of is an old bar.
The city, through the mayor`s office, decided we cannot allow these absentee landlords to get away with this, said Chief DeAndrea.
But some neighbors said thats easier said than done.

Demolition Cleanup in Hazleton
The man who ordered the demolition of the historic Majestic Theatre has defended his decision, saying restoration could have cost in excess of $18 million.
In a letter to the city council, Christchurch Central Development Unit (CCDU) director Warwick Isaacs said he had not made the decision to demolish the theatre lightly or in haste. He went on to strongly reject the council's assertion the planned widening of Manchester St was the main driver for his decision.
"While I understand your position in relation to this building I would like to point out some relevant factors to my decision which your letter does not cover,'' Isaacs said.
"Firstly, your own engineering advice agrees that a reasonable portion of the building needs to be demolished due to earthquake damage. Following this, restoration of the building could cost in excess of $18 million which, despite your heritage team's best efforts over the last three years, had not been found prior to my decision-making.''
Isaacs said the CCDU had asked the heritage team to provide any further reports or advice on the building in February of this year but they had simply referred staff to a report they prepared in 2012. They had also advised they did not wish to seek the retrieval of any heritage items from the building.
"I am unable to halt the demolition as you have requested,'' said Isaacs, pointing out that contractors had begun work on demolishing the building on March 31.
Addressing the issue at today's council meeting Cr Yani Johanson questioned whether the council should now be looking at whether it could get a High Court injunction or seeking a judicial review of the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority's (Cera's) powers to order its demolition.
Mayor Lianne Dalziel said the internal advice she had received was that there was no grounds for a judicial review but she was happy to seek a further legal opinion.
Councillors voted 11 to 3 to get urgent legal advice on whether there were grounds for the council to seek to halt the demolition of the Majestic, and on the validity of Cera's reliance on section 38 of the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Act to order the 1930s-era building's demolition.
"It is really important we look at what we can do in this regard - we have lost so many heritage buildings,'' Johanson said. "We have lost about 50 per cent of our listed heritage buildings within the central city.
