Bishop Urges Young to Renew Church

(July 19, 2011): A bishop in Taiwan is encouraging youths to spend less time surfing the Internet in order to talk with God and spread the Good News to their friends.
Young Catholics should be God’s living witnesses and attract their peers to Jesus, said Archbishop Peter Liu Cheng-chung of Kaohsiung at the closing Mass of the annual Taiwan Youth Day, on 17 July.
This year’s youth day held from July 14 -17 had the theme: “Love and communion — bring everything together under Christ.” Organizer, Bishop Thomas Chung An-zu of Chiayi, told the young participants that this year’s theme was similar to that of next month. The gathering in Madrid August 16-21 bears the theme: “Planted and built up in Jesus Christ, firm in the faith.”
