Sep 11, 2006, this date may make everyone think of 911. At 10pm of the day, in Zhouzhi county of Shan'xi province (ÉÂÎ÷ÖÜÖÁÏØ), just as people fell into sleep, Bishop Martin (Qinjing Wu) was also in sound sleep, suddenly about 20 to 30 young men came by driving four vehicles, when the gates of the church had already "safely" locked, they enter into the church by crossing the wall, they woke up Bishop Martin (Qinjing Wu) and took him away by violence, which woke up the 80 plus years old Father, four friars and four nons of the church. Then they howled away. We still do not know why this happened and where is Bishop Martin now. God please bless Bishop Martin Wu, please protect him from persecution. Dear brothers and sisters, please pray. God please let him come back safely.

I have prayed for him and will continue to until he is safely released. We know prayer can change the outcome, especially when done as a community. Thank you for posting.

Somebody at headquarters needs to tell the police supervisor...
HEY, you're not trying to pick up an freakin' Imam!
A couple of constables in a sedan would have done the job.

But then, the Communist Chinese probably fear non-violent Christians
as much as they do Muslims.

Clearly, the solution is for the Vatican to dump Taiwan and recognize Beijing as their masters.
