Sper că acest acord provizoriu chiar ajută la alegerea unor episcopi credincioși și nu doar pe placul autorităților. Numele lui Andrea Ding Yang mi-e nou, dar mă întreb cum va reuși să păstreze unitatea cu Roma în Chongqing. Să vedem ce iese pe termen lung.

Sper și eu să iasă bine pe termen lung. Numele Andrea Ding Yang nu-mi spune nimic, dar măcar a fost numit de Papa Leo XIV, nu doar de autorități. O să vedem cum se descurcă acolo în Chongqing cu unitatea față de Roma.
