A Vatican-appointed Chinese bishop has reportedly been taken into custody by the government and is undergoing isolation and indoctrination.

Zen said he was troubled by these reports and that he is a pessimist regarding the present situation of the Church in China, adding that his pessimism has a foundation in my long direct experience of the Church in China.

When this happens, I'll let you know.
In more relevant news, I have finally signed up for a regular hour at our adoration Chapel. My associate pastor, Fr. Jesus --- a really good guy, actually --- told me we need to pray, fast, and sacrifice in order to drive out demons.
Plus, if you ramp it up a notch, God will tell you what's our next step. He always tells us, just the moment we need to know and usually not before.
