Jerusalem also prays for Chinese Christians

Jerusalem, 24th May 2011

Today, 24th May – the day dedicated to the liturgical memory of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Help of Christians – the Day of Prayer for the Church in China is celebrated all over the world.

The Holy Land is also close to Chinese Christians who, as the papers and press agencies tell us, are increasingly finding it difficult to live their faith freely.

The speech made on this subject by Benedict XVI at the General Audience of 18th May in Italian and English is attached.
