>>> AsiaNews.it <<< In Beijing Orthodox Easter is celebrated in Catholic church

I know that the Roman Catholic Church has it pretty bad in China, but not nearly as bad as the Orthodox Church that is trying to survive without churches and without priests. Still, they retain the faith to celebrate Easter publicly for the first time in forty years.

Kudos also go to the permission given by the Catholics - probably belonging to the Patriotic Catholic Church - that Beijing's Catholic Cathedral could be used for the Divine Liturgy.

Here's praying that the Orthodox in China will soon have their own priest and church in which to praise God.
