ASIA/TAIWAN - Hundreds of young Catholics attend adoration for the Year of the Eucharist

Friday, 6 May 2005

Taipei (Fides Service) - In his Letter for this special Year of the Eucharist ‘Mane Nobiscum Domine’ Pope John Paul II stated that the Eucharist is the centre of all Christian life and this was also something he always lived and taught. With this in mind and as a way to thank God for Pope John Paul II, about a month ago young Catholics in Taiwan started attending a special series of Hours if Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament at Sacred Heart of Jesus parish in Taipei. The initiative will be repeated in May, June and again in October.
According to the Christian Life Weekly published by Taipei archdiocese, during the meetings, in a spirit of communion with the Catholic Church all over the world, hundreds of young people prayed for the Pope, the Church, young people, vocations, families, peace, and for all those suffering from poverty and hunger.
