Cana Wedding
Jesus fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah. The changing of water into wine is a symbol of the old order yielding to the new. On the left is a picture in Cana Wedding Church recording this. |

Prayer for the Year of 'Practice, Belief, Youth' Heavenly Father, we give thanks to you, for in your love and mercy you have called us to be your children and sharers of your divine life. We pray for our young people. May they cherish your care and concern for them, and, with the same loving care, serve the poor and the needy, and protect the weak. Sustained by your grace, may young people put their faith into practice. May they strive for holiness and lead others to achieve the same goal. In this way, may they help to bring about the transformation of the world. We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen. Composed by Most Rev.

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 !
