Next Week: Cardinal Zen Faces Court

Zen was arrested and released on bail on May 12. His alleged crime is connected to the origin of money belonging to a now dissolved fund whose trustee he was. The fund was helping dissidents in their legal defence.
In his first public appearance since the arrest during a May 15 live stream for the Society of Saint Francis de Sales, Zen spoke about his upbringing and how he became a bishop. He didn’t touch upon his arrest. He encouraged young faithful to stay true to their calling.
May 24 is the World Day of Prayer for the Church in China and the Feast of Mary Help of Christians – in China, celebrated as Our Mother of Sheshan.
