Tuesday July 25: Cardinal Burke to offer a Pontifical Mass for the Church in China

Brother Knights,

This Tuesday July 25 at 6pm, His Eminence Cardinal Raymond Burke will offer a Solemn High Pontifical Mass in Stamford, Connecticut, in honor of Our Lady of SheShan (a Marian apparition in China) – all for the intentions of the persecuted Catholics in China.

This is being done in coordination with the Cardinal Kung Foundation, which supports the underground Church in China. It was named after the white martyr Bishop of Shanghai, Cardinal Ignatius Kung Pinmei, who spent 30 years (1955-1985) in prison for the faith and died in exile in the U.S. in 2000. 

The Mass will be this Tuesday July 25 at 6pm St John’s Basilica in Stamford, Connecticut, and can be live streamed here: https://stjohnbasilica.org/livestream To see the flyer for the event visit: http://www.cardinalkungfoundation.org/fd/pdf/Solemn-TLM-Masses-2023.pdf

This event will be of interest to all Knights in our Network in two notable ways: First, this will be a Traditional Latin Mass, and secondly, it highlights the issue of liberty for the Catholic Church and her faithful, something the Knights of Columbus have long supported by word and deed.  All faithful are invited to attend or watch online.

Vivat Jesus,
