The Chinese prelate, Cardinal Joseph Zen, took to X to urge the faithful to take part in the the viral Act of Reparation which was originally promulgated at the Catholic Identity Conference on October 4, 2025.
Cardinal Zen posted on X: “I saw in the news today that four bishops [Bishop Athanasius Schneider (Kazakhstan); Bishop Marian Eleganti (Switzerland); Bishop Robert Mutsaerts (Netherlands); Bishop Joseph Strickland (USA)] issued a statement, calling on everyone to seek the Lord’s forgiveness for this blasphemous act and to make an Act of Reparation. I strongly support this.
“I suggest to all brothers and sisters that, after the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, it would be best to gather with fellow parishioners for three days to recite the attached prayers and perform an act of self-denial or a charitable deed, offering reparation before God for our brothers and sisters who have sinned.”
今天見到新聞，有四位主教［Bishop Athanasius Schneider (Kazakhstan)；Bishop Marian Eleganti (Switzerland)；Bishop Robert Mutsaerts (Netherlands)；Bishop Joseph Strickland (USA)］發起聲明，請大家為此褻瀆行為求主寬恕並作補贖(Act of Reparation)。我非常支持。…
