Hong Kong, May 14, 2008 / 05:20 pm (CNA).- Pope Benedict XVI has decreed an indulgence for Catholics in Hong Kong who join a novena to Our Lady, Help of Christians asking for special prayers for the Church in China.
The novena is a response to the Pope’s call for May 24 to become a World Day for Prayer for the Church in China. He announced the day of prayer in his June 2007 letter to mainland Catholics and asked that it be dedicated to “the liturgical memorial of Our Lady, Help of Christians, who is venerated with great devotion at the Marian Shrine of Sheshan in Shanghai.” Recommend this article... |

Majora Carter had a good trick up her sleeve. Chosen to be a bearer of the Olympic torch on its only North American appearance in San Francisco last week, the founder and executive director of the environmental organization Sustainable South Bronx concealed a small Tibetan flag in her long-sleeved T-shirt. As she was handed the torch, she unveiled the flag.
Ms. Carter was chosen as a torch-bearer as an exemplary American. She lived up to her responsibility. "I'm a torch bearer for peace and justice and freedom," she told reporters after Chinese security guards yanked the Olympic torch away and San Francisco cops pushed her off the street.
