Prayer Vigil for Hong Kong in San Francisco
St. Anne of the Sunset Church, 850 Judah St., San Francisco
The Archdiocese of San Francisco Chinese Ministry and the Office of Human Life & Dignity invite the faithful to a prayer vigil for Hong Kong at 6:30 pm on August 26 at St. Anne of the Sunset Church. We are joining our prayers with those of the faithful all over the world at the invitation of Cardinal Tong of Hong Kong. The service will include scripture readings, Eucharistic Adoration, and Benediction.
Hong Kong is experiencing demonstrations in reaction to mainland China's proposed extradition legislation, officially called the Fugitive Offenders and Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Legislation (Amendment) Bill 2019, that would see mainland China have extradition rights for the first time over any city resident, including foreign nationals as well as tourists.
