I invite you to hear God's voice resounding in your heart through the breath of the Holy Spirit. (Pope’s Letter to Young People, 2017)
Prayer for the Year of Youth Almighty and merciful Father, bless our young people, so that they may grow in your love, be able to distinguish between good and evil, hold fast to the truth, and have the courage to take responsibility and the readiness to share. Sustain them in their difficulties, and in their doubts and uncertainties, accompany them and bring them your comfort. Lord, we ask you to help young people to respond to the particular calling ant you have for each one of them. May they shine forth in the world as Christians and achieve a life which is fulfilling. We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen. Composed by Most Rev. Joseph Ha, OFM Auxiliary Bishop Imprimatur Most Rev: Michael Yeung, Bishop of Hong Kong. - 27December 2017 |

Prayer for the Church in China
O Lord Jesus Christ, you are the Lord of history. We humbly entrust to you the Church in China, joining in earnest prayers with Pope Francis and the Universal Church for unity of faith and love.
Help us, Lord, to trust in and cling to you and the Rock upon which you have built your Church.
You have counted among the blessed those who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness. Out of their sacrificial love, may the Holy Spirit draw abundant fruit, including reconciliation, whether in or out of season.
Heavenly Father, may freedom of religion be respected and upheld in fuller measure throughout the land.
Our Lady of Sheshan, pray for the Church in China ! Mother, pray for us all !
