  • Bishop Ma, who was ordained in July as a Shanghai auxiliary, announced during the ordination ceremony that he was leaving the Patriotic Association. He was immediately placed under house arrest. Soon thereafter, authorities closed down the Shanghai seminary.

A Little Boost


The last month found me short on work hours (I only got to work 3 days last week), and once again with too much month left at the end of the money.

I would greatly appreciate a little boost if possible, and as always, your prayers are greatly needed and valued.

Thank you!
