The Chinese government has arrested another underground Bishop this week. quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beijing, Apr. 07 (CWNews.com) - Bishop Julius Jia Zhiguo, who served the underground Church in the Diocese of Zhending, in the Hebei province of China, was arrested on April 5. Bishop Jia is the second underground bishop to be jailed in the past month. On March 5, Chinese authorities arrested Bishop Wei Jingyi of Qiqihar; he was released 9 days later. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EWTN has more details on this story.
