By the Catholic World News: Taipei, Apr. 26, 2007 (FIDES/CWNews.com) - Taiwan's Hsing Chu diocese welcomed a 114-year-old woman into the Church at Easter, the Fides news service reports.
When Bishop Luke Liu Hsien-Tang, bishop emeritus of the diocese, poured the water on the head of Xu Song Re Ai, the people present burst into warm applause to welcome the oldest Catholic in Taiwan. The event was announced by all the media in Taiwan, Catholic and non-Catholic alike.
